🚀 Big news from Google: by 2027, they're launching space data centers powered by the sun! ☀️🌌 Just yesterday, we were buzzing about the first H100 in space, and today we're diving back into this cosmic convo! Introducing Project Suncatcher – these data centers will harness solar energy like pros. Here’s what’s cooking: 1. At 650 km up, satellites can soak up sunlight come rain or shine! 🌤 2. Thanks to vacuum cooling, maintenance costs could drop by 40%! 💰 Google says their TPUs have passed radiation tests with flying colors—15 times better than what’s needed for the mission. So far, so good, but there are still some big questions to tackle. Come early 2027, they plan to launch two satellites with four TPUs each to double-check everything. Meanwhile, if Starcloud's on point, they might just have a full-fledged data center in orbit before then! 😲🌠 #SpaceTech #DataCenter #Innovation
