Inside X, the Moonshot Factory Racing to Build the Next Google

No, this isn’t the lead-in to an algebra joke. ‘X’ is the name of Google’s research and development factory — the place where the test out radical ideas to see if they can become viable companies. One of those, Loon, was the feature of a Minot Voice post long ago, and this article from WIRED captures the essence of their work. If you chase the article, you’ll notice one of those radical ideas involves tasking drones to deliver stuff. Which invites the idea, maybe Minot should take a moonshot?
