Two tech titans are pushing a wild frontier—taking data centers beyond Earth's atmosphere.



One's been quietly grinding on orbital AI infrastructure for over a year. The other? Gearing up to deploy upgraded hardware that could reshape how we think about cloud computing.

This isn't science fiction anymore. We're talking about real capital, real engineering, and a trillion-dollar market that might soon need a new zip code. The race isn't just about who gets there first—it's about who can make space-based compute nodes actually work at scale.

Think decentralized infrastructure, but literally off-planet. Latency challenges? Cooling in zero-g? Power generation in orbit? All on the table now.

Whoever cracks this could redefine where the internet actually lives.

Wow, the data center is in space? Is this really not a science fiction script? How much longer until it reaches orbit? It always feels like it's "just around the corner." Two companies are holding back their big moves here. Whoever solves zero-gravity cooling first wins. Oh my God, if this really happens... the internet will have to change its address, right? Damn delay issues. Can you still use it in space? Is it real or fake? What about the cooling liquid for the orbital servers? No one talks about these details. Feels like another round of fundraising stories. We'll see when they really get started. It's a bit outrageous, but these days, anything is possible...

Installing servers on the space station—these two giants really dare to think big --- Unbelievable, can cooling really be done in space? How outrageous must the costs be --- Wow, the internet is going to space, and we're still mining on Earth --- Who solves the latency problem first will be the next giant, it's that simple --- If this really works out, how will Earth's data centers survive? --- Over a year of hype on this project, finally seeing some real results --- Cooling, energy, latency... sounds more complex than moon landing --- All the chosen ones are here, Web3 is about to go completely crazy --- A trillion-dollar market is waiting, just see who can truly make this work --- Some progress, but don't hype it up prematurely. Let's see real-scale implementation first

Holy shit, did the data center go to heaven? Looks like we're really saying goodbye to Earth now, haha

Whoa, is the space data center really coming? The internet is really going to the sky now, haha. It's really about whoever solves the cooling issue first will win. Orbital computing power... can this thing operate stably? I have a feeling that the costs will explode when the time comes.
