A single 93km solar array in orbit would generate... as much electricity as every country on earth combined. The future of industry is in orbit.show more

With a single solar array ~100km wide in space... we could generate as much power as the whole of humanity combined currently uses. (barely visible when you zoom out) 99% of long term future energy growth will be space solar.show more

STARLINK IS RUNNING EARTH’S LARGEST SERVER… IN ORBIT While... everyone else is bragging about data centers on the ground, SpaceX quietly put 9,000 solar-powered computers in space and called it a constellation! Orbital Math: •⁠ ⁠Starlink sits at over 9,000+ active satellites after the latest batch •⁠ ⁠The entire rest of Earth manages roughly 3,000 to 4,000 combined •⁠ ⁠Each Starlink unit is a solar-powered network node with onboard compute •⁠ ⁠SpaceX now operates around 75 % of all active satellites in orbit At this rate Earth’s “space industry” is basically Starlink plus supporting characters!

The future of data centers is in orbit.

This video captures 90 minutes of exposure time of... our night sky and star trails, representing a full orbit in low-Earth orbit—the future home of Haven-1.show more

SpaceX is becoming one of the biggest solar-power operators... in space. Gen 1 Starlink: ~10 MW in orbit. Gen 2: ~100 MW. Gen 3: targeting ~1,000 MW. That's roughly a 10x jump every satellite generation. Most people think of Starlink as an internet network. Meanwhile, thousands of satellites are turning orbit into a rapidly growing solar-power grid. SpaceX Starlinkshow more

The Earth doesn't orbit the Moon, and the Moon... doesn't orbit the Earth. They both orbit their common barycenter (center of mass)!show more

Go for orbit! Starship will soon perform a burn... with a single Raptor engine to enter an ~275 km orbit of Earthshow more

When people see visualizations of satellites in orbit they... get scared because it looks crowded. So here is a visualization of what it looks like with accurate satellite sizes:show more

AI companies are fighting over land, electricity, and cooling... water on the ground. SpaceX is planning to skip the ground. Elon has something different in mind. Starmind. AI compute in orbit. Solar-powered satellites. Laser links. Racks of chips. A giant brain above Earth. Everyone else is building bigger data centers. SpaceX is planning to launch one.

The Kessler effect is a hypothetical phenomenon that entails... close and intense interactions among fragments of space debris. A single large fragment could trigger a cascade of events that would put every spacecraft in orbit at risk.show more

#ISRO's Aditya L1 shall be the first space-based Indian... mission to study the Sun. The spacecraft shall be placed in a halo orbit around the L1 of the Sun-Earth system,A satellite placed in the halo orbit around the L1 point has major advantage [📹 JWST Halo orbit around L2]show more

I spy with my little lander, a Moon in... the distance. Check out Blue Ghost's amazing view of Earth eclipsing the Moon as the lander travels on orbit. Our #GhostRiders can't wait to share more postcard worthy moments as we continue on our roadtrip. #BGM1show more
