SpaceNewsThe race to build orbital data centers is missing its biggest variable: power
Daniel Fischer"If there are 1 million AI sat minis in operation, then the constellation as a whole would perform 272 million collision risk mitigation manoeuvres per year, which is nearly 9 manoeuvres every second of every day for which the constellation is operating, on average", calculates https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/one-million-satellites-perform-billions-manoeuvres-hugh-lewis-x7ybe/ about the 1 million #OrbitalDataCenters madness: "Across a 15-year licence term, the cumulative total for the constellation would be 4 billion manoeuvres."
One million satellites will perform billions of manoeuvres
In the last few weeks I’ve written a couple of posts about SpaceX’s plans for 1 million Orbital Data Centres (ODCs). The first of those posts used the Federal Communication Commission's (FCC’s) own rationale to show that the failure rate needed to maintain reasonable levels of safety is likely unach
