The cooling and density challenges of datacenters here on earth are not trivial , but in space this is multiple magnitudes more difficult.

These numbers are just random bullsh*t numbers.

And what problems do orbital datacenters solve? They still need uplink, so not libertarian we can do what we want, you have no jurisdiction here thing.

This is just a sci-fi idea that is theoretically possible and is riding the ai bubble for users and investors that don’t know better.
