Terry :
Not sure about the cooling? Radiation needs a medium to transfer heat.

you cant eject heat in a vacuum

1. The heat radiators in the ISS take to 6500sqft of space and it has nowhere near the heat load of even a single cabinet of AI chips 2. Latency, no one ever talks about latency. Yes we're talking only a few milliseconds to ping a signal to low earth orbit and back but hardwired connections are a few microseconds, 100x faster

Wait can I ask why can’t we have them in Antarctica 🇦🇶

its not feasible in any way

This is why the space X IPO is massive. lol

Interesting :) I did a little napkin calculations and a 100MW data center would need something like 250,000 sqft of radiator surface facing deep space for cooling? Pretty big project if so!

1st problem not solved, have you calculated area of solar panels needed? No. 2nd Thermodynamics in space does work, but its at a much slower than heat tranfered to water, maybe do a class in thermal Engineering first. 3rd, You still need Permits, you cant just launch your own satellite.

we've had data centres in space since at least 2020 now.. 🤦

Alex H :
Economic costs of building data centers in space just doesn’t make sense to me at all when you can solve all three issues with a fraction of those developmental costs optimizing the technologies on the ground, alternative cooling and energy consumption methodology development. But no they wanna be pioneers and doing the fancy new trailblazer thing

Dylan Patel says the delay from manufacturing to using the chips would increase from days to 6-10 months for those sent to space. This is the newest freshest hardware we are talking about! The space data centres won’t be optimal preferable alternative until we solve the hardware shortage problem. Unfortunately, AI and cloud companies would be able to get excess electricity though produced in very inefficient ways and would be ready to consume the water with the excessive cost to the environment, so these shortages would be easier to resolve than the hardware shortage.

Ranumox :
They'd have to be tiny data centers because radiative cooling in space is not great. Panels are 33% efficient. Might need nuclear power. Even then the heat and payload are pretty large for our current capabilities

You don’t know what you’re talking about. A vacuum without air is not a good place to cool down

genuinely not an awful idea

senth :
perfect vacuum lacking matter, it doesn't conduct heat away from your body like air does on Earth. In the shade, you would freeze, but in direct sunlight, you would quickly overheat it’s still a problem

Bennie van Eeden :
It's not feasible at all. Have you ever seen a solar farm? That's how many solar panels you need for an AI data center. And water is a million times more efficient at cooling than just waiting for something to just cool down by itself. We can wait for things to cool down on earth too.

If we are going space , why not just use our moon for data centres or better yet use entire venus

Space is a vacuum which is an insulator, not a heat sink.
