Elon Musk’s latest move highlights how soaring AI power demands are reshaping the future of data centers, even beyond Earth.

Such technology is considered critical for long-term lunar habitation because solar power is non-functional during the 14-day lunar nights.

If these solar-powered data centers are launched into orbit, Musk will be able to outpace rivals like Google, Meta, and OpenAI.

A method called RIMS extracts rapid signals from hundreds of stars at once, producing 200,000 dynamic spectra.

A model accurately recreated solar cycles from 1996 to 2025 and forecasted key events years ahead.

General relativity doesn’t just bend light, it can influence planetary orbits enough to wipe out entire systems.

AI-generated waypoints guided Perseverance across challenging Martian terrain, marking a shift toward more autonomous planetary exploration.

The US National Reconnaissance Office’s JUMPSEAT satellites first flew to the unusual Molniya orbit in 1971.

Scientists have stated it would be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, though it should be weighed against the potential dangers for people on Earth.

Mathematical models show that mass distribution and radiation pressure could allow mega-structures to harvest stellar energy without constant control.

Though Amazon’s Leo satellites aren’t visible to the naked eye, they are still bright enough to obstruct astronomical observations.

The stage is set for NASA’s first crewed mission to the moon since Apollo 17 in 1972.

The idea of lunar tourism is compelling, but the technology needed to support it is still years away.

As space debris reenters Earth’s atmosphere, it travels several times faster than the speed of sound, creating a trail of shockwaves.

NASA’s new laminar flow wing design could save commercial aviation operators up to 10% in fuel costs.

Portugal’s new shock tube facility simulates extreme re-entry conditions in landmark hypersonic test.

The object existed when the universe was less than 1.5 billion years old.

SPARK Microgravity plans to study cancer in low Earth orbit, where gravity no longer distorts cell growth, signaling, and drug target discovery.

Smart molecular crystals can restore their structure, even at extreme freezing temperatures, making them valuable for space applications.
