Request to Attend<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Orbital data centers have quickly moved from hypothetical to seemingly inevitable, and opportunities and challenges are coming into focus fast. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As players raise millions to drive the race to establish off-planet computing, join SpaceNews on April 30 in Washington, D.C., for an afternoon of conversations with industry and government leaders on building, powering and managing data infrastructure in space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We\u2019ll explore into the near- and long-term potential fueling the buzz and investment in on-orbit computing, assess how solar and nuclear power could solve a key hurdle and weigh how the proliferation of AI informs the calculus of what computing stays on Earth and what begins to be handled in space. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A networking reception will follow our program. The event will not be live-streamed, but a post-event report featuring takeaways will be published in May and select conversations may be featured on upcoming episodes of our Space Minds podcast.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n
