By definition, a data center in space is remote, is self-reliant on electrical power and doesn't use potable water. These characteristics require technical solution to be practical, and if one has cracked that, they have disarmed all the push-back arguments people have raised against data centers. It's telling that the data centers want to build-out near population centers, i.e. where someone else has paid for fiber, grid and water infrastructure; it's a good old fashioned raid of the commons

This is first order thinking, of course buildings are built near builders…

building where people live is raiding the commons? Lol
