RT Aaron Burnett (@aaronburnett)If you're a journalist interested in telling a balanced narrative and want the 'pro' orbital data centers logic/math, we've made it VERY VERY easy.These articles are all open and ungated. You can just grok them if you need help parsing the numbers.Please take the time to understand the math and physics behind the pro case before publishing the skeptic case as fact.Launch limiters and initial math - https://t.co/x2e3LVrYn9Energy Cost from space -https://t.co/rXAUenDLDFLocation ...

Elon Musk“The next step beyond 🌎 data centers is our orbital data centersWe'll be launching with SpaceX orbital data centers at the 100 to 200 gigawatt per year level. Not cumulative; I mean per year. And ultimately, we see a path to maybe launching as much as a terawatt per year of compute from EarthBut what if you want to go beyond a mere terawatt per year?In order to do that, you have to go to the moon. By having factories on the moon, building AI satellites and having a mass driver....which is the kind ...

DefinitelyAaron Burnett (@aaronburnett):Cathie discussing SpaceX convergence on orbital data centers and reusable rockets with Peter and friends. Ark and team deserve a ton of credit for not only recognizing that last year was the right time to begin diving deep into SpaceX modeling, but also for being so generous with https://t.co/RNc4fB1ZQa ...

🚀 BREAKING: SpaceX just filed with the FCC to deploy up to 1 MILLION satellites — not just for Starlink internet, but to build massive orbital data centers in space!These solar-powered AI supercomputers at 500–2,000 km altitude will use laser links to tap into Starlink, delivering insane compute power for AI models serving billions — while dodging Earth’s skyrocketing energy & heat limits.Elon Musk called space the “no-brainer” for explosive AI growth. Starship will make rapid launches possible. This is nex ...
