AI eats electricity like a monster. At this point, the bottleneck isn’t algorithms — it’s power and heat.
Space has insane solar power. No clouds, no rain, no night. Basically sunlight 24/7. Way more stable than anything on Earth.
“Isn’t space cold?” Half true. No air means no free cooling, but also no ambient heat. You dump heat with big radiators. No water, no chillers, no fighting the weather.
Yeah, launch costs are still crazy.
But they keep dropping, and data centers always move to where power is cheapest.
Turns out the next place might be off-planet.
Why Build Data Centers in Space? (Not a Joke)
