STARMIND sounds like something from a sci-fi movie. Naturally, SpaceX set its mind to make it real. Starlink connects the world from space. STARMIND would run AI from space. Solar-powered orbital compute, laser-linked satellites, and eventually a massive xAI network above Earth. Starlink's wi-fi connection went into orbit first. Now the xAI brain wants a launch window.

The first Starlink V3 satellites got to space and immediately got busy. They deployed their solar arrays, fired up their thrusters, connected to the Starlink constellation through radio and laser links, then casually took pictures of Starship. Not a bad first day in orbit. SpaceX Starlink / Writer: Annette, Grok Imagine Designer: Janné

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!

Yosemite is about as far from a city network as you can get. And now it has high-speed internet through Starlink. No fiber. No cell tower on every mountain. Just satellites doing the awkward part. SpaceX Starlink / Writer: Annette, Grok Imagine Designer: Janné

SpaceX went public and immediately made the stock market look like mission control. $75 billion raised. SPCX on Nasdaq. Largest IPO ever. A rocket company just walked onto Wall Street carrying Falcon, Starlink, Starship, and Mars in the same backpack. That is a very busy ticker symbol. SpaceX / Writer: Annette, Designer: Janné

Grok Imagine video has always been great at making one impressive scene. Keeping the same character, voice, location, and props through the next six scenes was the tricky part. Grok Imagine 1.5’s new References feature fixes that. Lock up to 7 elements, name them, then keep building around them. Now the story can keep going without the cast and scenery randomly changing on you. Grok xAI / Writer: Annette, Grok Imagine Designer: Janné

The companies racing Elon Musk to build AI are paying him more than 2 billion dollars a month to do it. Anthropic pays SpaceX 1.25 billion dollars a month. Google pays 920 million. They are not buying rockets. They are renting compute, the scarce Nvidia chips that train frontier models, from a data center in Memphis called Colossus that Musk's rocket company now owns. SpaceX folded xAI into itself in February, and with it the 220,000 chips built to train Grok. Then it rented them to Grok's rivals. Anthropic took the entire first building. Google leased 110,000 more. The contracts signed so far run past 80 billion dollars. SpaceX is no longer a rocket company that dabbles in AI. It is one of the largest AI compute landlords on Earth, and its biggest tenants are the rivals it is trying to beat. Musk is not choosing between building AI on the ground and building it in space. He is using one to fund the other. The 80 billion in ground contracts is the cash engine. Starmind, the million-satellite constellation built to leave the ground behind, is what the cash builds. So the rivals are financing his exit from the planet. Every dollar Anthropic and Google pay for compute in Memphis helps fund the orbital network designed to strand them on the surface. They are paying the toll on the road they are trying to win, and the toll is building Musk a road no one else can reach. The piece works out who is really renting from whom.

🚨 BREAKING: Starcloud just turned Starlink’s laser network into the backbone for orbital AI data centers. A company called Starcloud has ordered 50+ Starlink Mini Laser terminals to equip 25+ future satellites. Not ground stations. Not fiber cables. Direct laser-linked computing nodes in orbit plugged straight into SpaceX’s space-based optical mesh. This is the sci-fi future arriving now: Orbital cloud computing AI servers floating in space Powered by 24/7 sunlight Connected globally at light speed via Starlink lasers The insane part: Starcloud says its satellites will eventually handle full AI inference and training workloads directly in orbit. Data won’t always need to come back to Earth to be processed. The advantages are massive: • Unlimited solar energy (no grid limits) • Zero land or water constraints • Passive radiative cooling in vacuum • Instant global relay with zero terrestrial bottlenecks • Near real-time Earth observation analysis Their first major spacecraft (Starcloud-3) is designed for 200 kilowatts in orbit a full-on space-based data center node, not just a satellite. And here’s the bigger picture: SpaceX has filed plans for up to ONE MILLION orbital data centers of its own. Read that again. We may be watching the birth of the first true space-based computing infrastructure layer for civilization. The internet already left the ground. Now AI might be next. What happens when the cloud literally moves into space? Follow for more frontier physics and future technology.

A dog on a phone saying, “Yes, this is dog.” That was it. And somehow, it broke the internet in 2011. Today, with Grok Imagine, you can take one stupid little idea and turn it into a polished video, a game, a song, or a whole series in the same day. Same weird ideas, far more ways to run with them.

Most AI models learn engineering from the internet. Grok will get notes directly from a giant rocket factory. xAI is prepping to use SpaceX engineering data for Grok’s 2T training run, excluding restricted ITAR material. That means design notes, test reports, complex aerospace math, and the kind of real-world problem-solving you only get when you are building Starship and catching boosters. Physics gets a lot more useful when the homework comes with scorch marks. Grok xAI SpaceX / Writer: Annette, Designer: Janné

Elon Musk just named it. Starmind. One million AI satellites, each a flying data center wider than a 747, cooled by panels that glow their heat into the void. This is not Starlink. Starlink moves internet. Starmind moves thought. Each satellite, the AI1, carries 150 kilowatts of compute on a 70-meter span of solar cells, runs the model on board, and beams the answer down. No building, no grid, no water. The reason is in SpaceX's own IPO filing. The AI market it values at 26.5 trillion dollars hits a wall of electricity and water that Earth cannot supply at a sane price. Orbit erases both. The sun never sets up there, and a 147-year-old law does the cooling: in a vacuum, heat escapes only as infrared, so a panel facing the 3-kelvin void radiates it straight out, no water touched. Run that panel hotter and it sheds heat 16 times faster for double the temperature. What Earth data centers burn rivers to do, a glowing wing does for nothing. Musk flagged the problem himself, in the same filing. SpaceX cannot get enough chips to build this yet, and the fab meant to fix that, Terafab, ten times the size of Tesla's Austin gigafactory, may fail. The prototypes do not fly until 2027. Astronomers are already in revolt over a million new lights crossing the sky. Days ago, Masayoshi Son, who owns the whole AI stack on the ground, called space data centers pointless. Musk just named his and put a million of them on the drawing board. One man is reading his balance sheet. The other is betting on the laws of physics. The piece works out which one the void rewards.

Grok now supports worktrees. Translation: You can deploy multiple AI agents on the same codebase and they won't spend the day tripping over each other. One ships features. One hunts bugs. One reviews code like an overcaffeinated staff engineer. Same repository. Separate workspaces. Zero chaos. The result? Your codebase stays organized while the output starts looking suspiciously unfair. Parallel processing used to be something computers did. Now it's becoming how software gets built.

Here’s how Starlink next‑generation V3’s laser network works in space Each Starlink V3 satellite is equipped with six high-capacity space lasers capable of operating at up to 400 Gbps These laser links connect satellites directly to one another, creating a fast, high-bandwidth and resilient mesh network in orbit that can route massive amounts of data around the planet without relying entirely on nearby ground stations That means more network capacity, faster data routing, greater reliability and stronger connectivity across remote and hard-to-reach regions Starlink V3 is not just a more powerful satellite It is a major upgrade to the internet infrastructure being built in space

🇺🇸 SPACEX STARSHIP FLIGHT 10 HITS EVERY TARGET IN SPECTACULAR LAUNCH SpaceX just pulled it off. Starship, the largest and most powerful rocket ever built, blasted out of South Texas on its 10th test flight and nailed every key milestone. The Super Heavy booster executed a controlled splashdown in the Gulf of Mexico, while the upper stage soared to space, re-ignited an engine, deployed dummy Starlink satellites, then survived reentry before breaking up on impact with the ocean. SpaceX says the mission stressed the vehicle’s limits and delivered invaluable data for the next-generation Starship. Source: SpaceCom Video: Dima Zeniuk

Research gets messy very quickly when one AI is trying to do everything alone. Grok Build’s new /deep-research command is built for the bigger jobs. It sends multiple agents into the work at once, but with structure. Plan. Research. Verify. Report. That means the system can split the task, chase evidence, cross-check findings, and come back with cited output instead of one lonely model guessing in a corner. The geeky kind of command people will start overusing immediately. Grok xAI / Writer: Annette, Grok Imagine Designer: Janné

🚨 SPACEX IS ABOUT TO TEST A RADICALLY DIFFERENT KIND OF SPACECRAFT AND IT COULD UPEND THE ENTIRE ORBITAL MANUFACTURING INDUSTRY. On Tuesday, SpaceX plans to fly the first prototype of Starfall, a flat, disk-shaped reentry capsule designed to return up to 1,000 kilograms of cargo from orbit in a single flight. That’s roughly 30 times more payload capacity than current commercial return vehicles (like those from Varda Space Industries). It’s not a scaled-down Dragon it’s a completely different approach: no onboard deorbit engine, a wide flat disk geometry, and Starlink terminals mounted to maintain communication through the plasma blackout during reentry. Why this matters: • Current orbital manufacturing companies are limited to returning only dozens of kilograms per mission • Starfall’s design could make large-scale commercial production in space economically viable for the first time • SpaceX would be directly competing with companies (like Varda) that currently pay SpaceX to launch their capsules • Successfully testing Starlink through reentry plasma would be a major technical win with applications across SpaceX’s vehicles The deeper implication: SpaceX is quietly expanding its vertical integration. They already dominate launch. Now they’re moving into the return leg of the orbital manufacturing supply chain the part that has been the biggest bottleneck for companies trying to make products in microgravity and bring them back to Earth. If Starfall works at scale, it doesn’t just give SpaceX another revenue stream. It gives them significant control over the economics of an entire emerging industry. The disk shape and high-capacity design suggest they’re thinking about high-cadence, lower-cost returns rather than the traditional high-value, low-volume approach. This is classic SpaceX: take an existing problem (expensive, low-capacity return from orbit), apply first-principles thinking to the vehicle design, and try to make it dramatically cheaper and higher volume. How do you think this move into orbital return changes the competitive landscape for companies trying to build businesses in space manufacturing? Follow for more analysis on SpaceX’s expanding role across the space economy.

This guy built a mini AI farm out of 4 Nvidia boxes It does not look like a data center. It looks like a stack of small machines sitting next to a laptop. But each box is a DGX Spark with Grace Blackwell inside, 128GB unified memory, and enough room to run models normal gaming GPUs cannot even open. Using the launch price from the article, 4 of them is almost $12,000 of local AI compute on one desk. That sounds expensive until you compare it to cloud GPUs. A serious AI builder can burn $1,500 to $3,000 a month renting A100s and H100s for client work, fine-tunes, agents and 70B models. He basically moved that bill from the cloud into hardware he owns. 4 Nvidia boxes. 512GB unified memory. No hourly meter running in the background. No rented GPUs eating the margin every time an agent runs too long. The funny part is most people still think local AI means a slow laptop running a toy model. Meanwhile guys like this are stacking compute at home. Save this, local AI is turning into the new mining farm.

No rented GPUs eating the margin every time an agent runs too long. The funny part is most people still think local AI means a slow laptop running a toy model. Meanwhile guys like this are stacking compute at home. Save this, local AI is turning into the new mining farm.
