- 1SpaceX launches Starship on 14th test flight●Watch Live: SpaceX Starship heads for orbit on 14th flight
SpaceX launched its Starship rocket on the 14th test flight of the program, streaming the attempt live as the vehicle headed toward orbit. Viewers worldwide followed the coverage, with interest centered on how the spacecraft performs through launch, stage separation and reentry. Each flight is used to gather data that feeds into future Starship missions, which SpaceX eventually aims to use for Moon and Mars travel.
- 2Europe and UAE Plan $1 Billion Orbital Data Center●Europe and UAE plan $1 billion orbital data center with 50 connected "computers" and a central "LLM store" that allows users to select what open source model to use on data collected by satellite sensors
Europe and the United Arab Emirates are planning a $1 billion data center in orbit, built around 50 connected satellite computers. A central 'LLM store' would let users choose which open source AI model to run on data gathered by satellite sensors, processing information in space rather than beaming it all back to Earth. The project highlights growing interest in orbital computing for space-based data processing.
