Suncatcher is a lame name. What about ikarus!
None of this is going to happen.
Multiple articles have come out in the past week with techbros blathering about putting giant stacks of power-hungry compute in fucking orbit, and not a single one of them has explained how a) any of it is going to be cooled and b) how any of it will be even remotely (as in, within 2 orders of magnitude) cost-competive with data centers on the ground.
This is a scam seeking to part extremely rich fools from their money.
Trust me Bro. Give me one more billion Bro. I need GPU and compute Bro. Just one more then it will be AGI. Just one more. /s
I am ok with this but the life cycle on the GPUs is much shorter than a normal satellite. Free power via solar instead of coal is awesome.
That will make it easier to toss it into the sun when we finally realize how useless it is. Have at 'er, google.
