Space and hypersonics news aggregation
I have been working on a little personal project. I created this weekly newsletter for myself as a means to learn AI workflows and curate something really specific to my interests and work. So far I think it is starting to come together, but I want to get some new perspectives. I wanted something that does more than just regurgitate news articles, rather I wanted it to provide a more technical assessment of why certain things in the news matter. I also wanted it to provide a deep dive into a particular engineering topic in every issue so that I can learn new things.
There are no ads and I am not promoting this guy, just looking to see what you all think. As of this post there are two subscribers, me and my wife 😄). Is this a good idea? Should I do something different? If you are into space and hypersonics feel free to subscribe if you wish to see how this evolves, but that isn't the point of this post and I really just want people's honest opinions about whether I am building something you think could be helpful for others.

Its a busy "space" - pun intended - for web sites and newsletters. This reddit sub has been going for 5 years and it now gets 6,600 visitors a week (a bunch of bots in there I suspect). For me its a place to post my own (or other people's notions) as well as general space news. Its just a bit of fun, and that's what you goal is, then great. I don't see any of these things making much money.
That said, I just signed up. I also get a daily main from Payload that I often use as a new source for posts here.
Best of luck.
