SpaceX Launches 10 Iridium Satellites Into Space From Vandenberg
----
Los Angeles-based space rocket developer SpaceX completed its launch on
Sunday, putting ten Iridium satellites into orbit from Vandenberg Air Force
Base, just north of Santa Barbara. The launch, and landing, of a SpaceX
Falcon 9 rocket followed an earlier,  successful launch and landing in
Florida on Friday of another rocket for SpaceX--an unprecedented
back-to-back launch that demonstrates the progress SpaceX has made in terms
of making delivering payloads to space an everyday occurance. SpaceX
launched the latest Falcon 9 into orbit at 1:26 p.m. PDT, with the rocket's
smoke trail visible from as far south as Los Angeles. The launch on Sunday
is part of a contract to deliver a total of 75 satellites into orbit for
Iridium.

to ViaSat, it is tripling production of its Joint Tactical Radio System
(JTRS) terminals specifically for those contracts. Those software defined

capability across ground, air and naval assets. ViaSat said the work on

SpaceX Chalks Up Another Launch, Landing: One More This Weekend

Hawthorne-based SpaceX chalked up yet another successful launch and landing

space from Florida. The company, led by billionaire Elon Musk, is expected
to launch a second set of satellites into space on Sunday, June 25th, at
1:25 p.m. PDT, for Iridium from Vandenberg Air Force Base. Image: launch of

July 13, Irvine -- Intellectual Property: What, When, Where, Why, and How.
TCVN. Intellectual property is becoming increasingly important when it
comes to business valuation as well as success – especially for tech
companies. A well-developed patent portfolio (along with an intellectual
property portfolio, generally) conveys a high degree of technical and
commercial sophistication to potential investors, customers, competitors,
and licensees. It also proves that you value investment in research and
development and are prepared to take appropriate steps to protect those
investments. This presentation will provide an introduction to
intellectual property generally (including patents, trademarks, copyright
and trade secrets), as well as related issues to keep in mind, so that you
will be better equipped to identify and protect your intellectual property
in a timely manner, both in the U.S. and abroad. See
