06 Oct 2025. The UAE’s Technology Innovation Institute has hit a new milestone in space propulsion. We get the details of this “big rocket-thrusting announcement” from Dr. Elias Tsoutsanis, Chief Researcher at TII’s Propulsion and Space Research Center. Plus, as the US government shutdown heads into its second week, we look at what it could mean for the UAE economy with Professor Adam Ramey of NYU Abu Dhabi and Emirates NBD economist Ed Bell. And as we count down to our NIO electric car giveaway, we continue our “Charge & Chat” series, recorded while cruising in the back seat of a NIO.
