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.

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!

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 Starlink

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:

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.

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. #BGM1

🇨🇳 China has launched nine computing satellites into orbit. A Kinetica-1 rocket from CAS Space launched from the Jiuquan launch site and placed several satellites, including the Chaozhisuan-1, into a sun-synchronous orbit. This satellite serves as a technology demonstrator for a future orbital computing constellation. The satellite is equipped with powerful computing resources and laser communication capabilities. It will be able to process data directly in orbit, receive "raw" data from other satellites, and transmit the results to Earth.
