1. Why now
AI compute demand has increased dramatically since 2014, while electricity scenarios are already forcing an infrastructure conversation. Six terrestrial bottlenecks recur: power grid,…
2. Energy, heat and connectivity
Why "space is cold" does not mean free cooling: heat rejection still dominates and radiator area grows quickly. A real advantage is longer-duration solar exposure in suitable orbits;…
