summary: "SpaceX is partnering with Nvidia to build AI computing centers that will operate in orbit to bypass power constraints on Earth. The company targets the third quarter of 2027 to begin deploying the hardware, with volumes slated to ramp up in 2028 and 2029, according to CEO Elon Musk. Musk noted that orbital sites provide 30% more solar power than ground-based facilities and that the cost of producing intelligence in space is lower once the cost per ton to orbit is reduced."
