- chancitag 5mo ago> A deal between the two tech titans would give a boost to SpaceX’s business ahead of a historic public listing. That tagline says it all. This is just pure market manipulation. There's no current path to space-based datacenters being feasible. Launch costs, unrepairable, enormous amounts of solar panels (and thermal rejectors) required. The concept doesn't survive even casual contact with reality.
