Funny though how it makes it look like the Moon is flat - and just like that, yet another utterly idiotic conspiracy theory is born...
The idea they are discussing is to put AI compute into orbit where there is uninterruptible solar power.He's talking about amount of solar into orbit. Not sure what the, "other parts of the equation" are without context. He's said many times he thought trying to beam power to Earth would be a loser because of losses in transmission and conversion.
China is already working on it.The idea they are discussing is to put AI compute into orbit where there is uninterruptible solar power.
I doubt it will be worth it.
The synthetic aperture radar (SAR) satellite is to be deployed into low Earth orbit onboard the next Transporter-15 mission by SpaceX’s Falcon 9 rocket.
Keeping production going keeps the factory teams sharp and eliminating bottlenecks. Test articles are cheap enough that it doesn’t make sense to stop production until all the bugs have been worked out, because they are continually rolling in improvements. It’s a setback, but not an enormous one.I was wondering why they were building this before they'd (apparently) not completed all the work with the various test tanks for the new version. Maybe just to keep them building? Will be interesting to see what the root cause is.
