Satellite jammers and sewer robots open WSJ's engineering week
A Colorado base visit supplies the biggest new upload, while water-law expert Rhett Larson examines the Colorado River's structural problems.
Why this story? The channel's weekly summary: what went up this week, what is drawing views now, and where the channel stands among similar channels.
The Space Force Showed Us Its Weapons Used in Iran and Venezuela | WSJ Equipped
From interfering with satellites to inspecting sewer pipes, The Wall Street Journal's latest uploads found very different uses for technology that mostly works out of sight.
The biggest of fifteen new releases was "The Space Force Showed Us Its Weapons Used in Iran and Venezuela | WSJ Equipped," drawing about 570,000 views. The Journal visited a Colorado base and interviewed Guardians who deployed electromagnetic warfare systems overseas. Among them is Tech. Sgt. Joshua Lomax, whose account connects satellite-jamming operations in Venezuela with a rapid deployment to the Middle East. The report is also the channel's busiest video by daily views right now.
Water provided a substantial second thread. "How to Actually Fix the Colorado River Crisis | WSJ Pro Perfected" passed half a million views, with Arizona State University water-law professor Rhett Larson examining allocation rules, technological fixes and the possibility of a broader overhaul. Beneath the streets, "Why This Tiny Robot Could Fix Massive Sewer Failures | WSJ" introduces the European PIPEON project, designed to detect and potentially address problems in aging networks. That newer report is already another of the channel's strongest daily draws.
Elsewhere, Stephen Wilmot explored Chinese automakers' presence at the Paris Motor Show, while Josh Dawsey returned to his college town of Columbia, South Carolina, to hear from young voters before the midterms. The Paris report rounds out the channel's busiest trio by daily views.
Subscribers held steady, though daily viewing is running at nearly twice its usual pace. Among nearby news channels, CBS News and LiveNOW from FOX had substantially larger weekly viewing totals. For WSJ, the distinctive thread was access: to military equipment, infrastructure research and the specialists explaining how those systems work.
