Dead on, You can transmit data to and from space and have the compute completed at potentially fractions of the cost.

Tell me about your cooling medium in space

  • A large piece of aluminum with ammonia pumped through it?

    • Nothing about this is sounding economically competitive with ground based solutions

    • Right up to the radiation limit and then you'll either have to throttle your precious GPUs or you'll be melting your satellite or at least the guts of it. You're looking at an absolutely massive radiator here, many times larger than the solar panels that collect the energy to begin with.
