How this section works
Every intelligence item follows one routing rule: the news record lives here, the permanent explanation lives in its owning chapter, and the current physical status lives in Chapter 6 — Ground Reality.
Item format
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Date | When the change was published or verified. |
| What changed | The specific milestone, announcement or status change. |
| Category | The owning chapter (e.g. Ch. 20 Semiconductors). |
| Status tag | 🟢 Operational · 🟡 Under construction · 🔵 Approved · 🟠 Announced · ⚪ Planned · 🔴 Delayed · ⚫ Cancelled |
| Source | Primary or reliable source, per our verification method. |
First entries: the dated intelligence feed starts once the chapter pages are built. Editorial rule: no item is published without a source and a status tag.
