The pitch for orbital compute is straightforward: put data centers in space, eliminate terrestrial land and power constraints, serve a global footprint from above. The reality is considerably more complicated. The physics are not the problem. Low Earth orbit is a viable location for processing hardware. Thermal management is harder than on the ground, but solvable. Latency to … [Read more...] about Orbital Compute: Real Infrastructure or Vapor
