The first Earth Day was founded on April 22, 1970, and was a product of the famous image “Earthrise” taken from space by the Apollo 8 astronauts. 🌎 More than 50 years later, we’re still capturing stunning images of the Earth daily – but now we’re doing it with cutting-edge satellite technology. Here are just some of our images in celebration of Earth Day 2025, covering a diversity of landscapes, from a national parks in Africa to an ice melt in North America. Planet Satellite Captures: 🌍 🛰️ 1) Coastal zone of Kimberly, Australia. 2) Mangrove covered river systems in Sundarbans, India/Bangladesh. 3) Ice melt in Atkinson Bay, Canada. 4) Edge of Kibale National Park, Western Uganda.

We couldn't have said it better ourselves. We're thankful to our investor DCVC for its continued support and recognition of our latest milestone: our new spectral lightsheet microscope. Check out Jason Pontin's post for more details: https://lnkd.in/eYDs9hei
DCVC portfolio company Kanvas Biosciences has developed a new spectral lightsheet microscope that surpasses the resolution and spectral capabilities of the best commercially available instruments! This tool will allow Kanvas to generate novel, proprietary data about host-microbiome interactions, fueling AI models that help the company come up with new cancer treatments. One of our core beliefs here at DCVC is that new technologies and tools fuel scientific insights, especially in biology, rather than the reverse. To understand why, read more from DCVC GP Jason Pontin on how Kanvas is making advances in microbiome therapies, where so many companies have failed in the past. 👇 https://lnkd.in/gRZjk4We

Fervo Energy is crushing it. 31 MW PPA from Shell, upsizing their current live facility from 400MW to 500MW with no material changes. Glad that DCVC could be a major investor early enough — and often enough — to make a difference for the company and our LPs.
Shell Energy signs on. Cape Station scales up. And enhanced geothermal continues to deliver. We’re excited to announce a new power purchase agreement with Shell Energy for 31 MW of 24/7 carbon-free electricity from Cape Station, the world’s largest enhanced geothermal development. Under this 15-year agreement, Shell Energy will begin receiving power in 2026 to help serve its retail customers with reliable, around-the-clock clean energy. This milestone also marks a major expansion: Cape Station is officially growing from 400 to 500 MW. Thanks to technical breakthroughs, we’re generating more power from each well - allowing us to scale faster and more efficiently. As demand for clean, firm energy accelerates, Fervo is meeting the moment by delivering electrons to the grid - starting next year. 📄 Read the full press release here: https://lnkd.in/geFaX9Aq #Geothermal #CleanFirmPower #CapeStation #EGS #EnhancedGeothermalSystems #ShellEnergy
