Thanks @YCombinator for documenting @Starcloud_Inc1’s journey to launching the first @Nvidia H100 in space 🙏 Check it out below! 🎥🤓
Starcloud (@Starcloud_Inc1) recently made history by launching a satellite with an NVIDIA H100 into orbit — the first time a GPU that powerful has ever operated in space. It's the first step toward building AI data centers in orbit, powered by continuous sunlight and cooled by radiating heat into deep space.
Their approach could one day rival the world's biggest data centers while using less energy, zero fresh water, and far lower emissions.
YC's @aaron_epstein visited Starcloud's HQ, where co-founders @philipjohnston, @EzraFeilden, and @Adi_Oltean explained how they built a working prototype in just 15 months — and why big tech is racing to space for AI compute.

What’s with all the Ads on X today? Is there a way to pay more to get rid of that? I think I’m the highest teir already

This!
Humanity's first mission to Alpha Centauri (the Fermi Explorer) could launch by 2029 (approximately):

Travel time is roughly 80,000 years. Ultimate verification that the mission actually reaches its target (the Alpha Centauri system) is "somewhat inconvenient".

Starcloud, which plans to design, build, and deploy data centers in space, has booked a dedicated Neutron launch in 2029.

Banger. Must read
And now the launch crunch has come for the US military.

Founders, when you get rejected by a VC that you would have loved to have in, you don't need to get salty or play it cool. You can actually just say: "Would have loved to have you in, but all good."

For those who keep trying to tell me you have some brilliant AI auto posting for you… I’m sure you do, but it’s also the reason you get zero engagement.
@x doesn’t try to hide it, they are very actively down ranking this stuff. The below is from the X Original Content guidelines:

See? @Starcloud_ is a supporter. I’ve said it many times and I’m stoked for the official news here with $RKLB. Let’s hope it’s the first of many things together as they mutually grow.

Companies that have booked Rocket Lab's $RKLB Neutron flight: ICEYE @iceye_global; Muon Space @MuonSpace; Starcloud @Starcloud_; Kepler Communications @KeplerComms.

.@Starcloud_ filed with the FCC for 88,000 satellites, and that’s only batch one.
Those carry 20 GW, 0.2% of the 10 terawatts the orbit holds, nearly 20x the US grid.
They flew first, then @SpaceX filed for 1M. Small guys proved it, big guys moved in, it only gets bigger.

‘Musk’ is the worst documentary I’ve ever seen. How can you make a 4 hour documentary which is basically the result of asking Claude: “Mix a bunch of random YouTube clips in a way that adds no new information and add a miserable uncle narrator persona over the top.”

Laser-focused on orbital data centres, @PhilipJohnston and @Starcloud_ pioneered AI compute in orbit and generously shared the economics behind it.
Now everyone’s talking about orbital compute. But there’s a difference between imagining the future and putting it in orbit.
Vision inspires. Execution propels an industry forward. Starcloud has delivered, and is already building what’s next! 🚀💫
