Google Makes Record $32B Cloud Security Bet With Wiz Deal

📌 Google (GOOG) went big on cloud security, agreeing to acquire Wiz for $32 billion in an all-cash deal—the largest acquisition in its history. The move strengthens Google Cloud’s security offering as AI-driven threats rise.

📌 Wiz had previously walked away from a $23B Google deal, opting instead to chase an IPO. But the cybersecurity startup, known for rapid growth, ultimately took the bigger offer, with its co-founder calling the deal a "rocket boost."

📌 The acquisition could face regulatory scrutiny, but Wall Street expects the Trump administration to take a lighter approach on tech mergers. Wiz’s services will remain available on rival platforms like AWS and Azure.

Boeing Starliner Astronauts Finally Return After Nine-Month ISS Stay

🚀 Nine months instead of nine days – NASA astronauts Butch Wilmore and Suni Williams finally left the ISS after their Boeing Starliner capsule was deemed unsafe for return. Originally set for a quick test mission, they ended up becoming long-term residents.

🌍 SpaceX to the rescue – With Boeing’s (BA) spacecraft grounded, NASA sent them back aboard a SpaceX Dragon capsule. Their return was further delayed due to scheduling conflicts with other crew rotations and a postponed Crew-10 launch.

💸 Boeing’s space troubles continue – Starliner was meant to be NASA’s second crewed vehicle alongside SpaceX, but repeated failures have left its future uncertain. Boeing has already lost more than $2 billion on the program, with no clear path forward.
