Google proposed the concept of a "space data center," attempting to alleviate the AI computing power and energy bottleneck with a solar-powered satellite cluster. However, high costs, maintenance difficulties, orbital collisions, and lack of regulation pose significant challenges. After Microsoft's underwater project faced setbacks, this plan seems more like a radical bet on the unlimited expansion of AI

- Google is exploring a groundbreaking project called "Project Suncatcher" to relocate energy-intensive AI data centers to space, addressing ground power shortages.  
- This initiative includes a constellation of 81 satellites with AI chips set to be launched by 2027, leveraging the near-constant solar energy of a sun-synchronous orbit.  
- However, this plan faces significant challenges, including technical feasibility, high costs, and concerns over space debris and governance of satellite proliferation.
