Google’s Space-Based AI Data Centre Plan Faces Collision Risks in an Increasingly Crowded Orbit
Google’s Project Suncatcher aims to build a solar-powered AI data center in space. Experts warn the crowded Sun-synchronous orbit poses high collision risks from space debris, and without autonomous safeguards, even a single impact could trigger a cascade, scattering millions of fragments. This project underscores the urgent need for orbital debr...

AI in Space: Why Elon Musk, Google, and Amazon Want to Make It the Next Frontier?
Major AI companies are exploring space-based data centres to cut energy and cooling costs. Google is researching solar-powered TPU satellites under Project Suncatcher, while Nvidia-backed Starcloud is preparing to launch an H100-equipped satellite powered entirely by solar energy. Leaders like Jeff Bezos and Elon Musk have also expressed interest, ...

ISRO’s Faces SSLV-D1 Data Loss at Terminal Phase of the Mission, Placed in Wrong Orbit
Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) launched its Small Satellite Launch Vehicle (SSLV-D1) on Sunday from the Satish Dhawan Space Centre (SDSC) in Andhra Pradesh's Sriharikota. However, the rocket places satellites into an elliptical orbit instead of a circular one. According to the ISRO, the satellites are no longer usable.
