There's other sources of energy besides these turbines with a longer timeframe.
So I think the watch watts shortage.
Will probably begin to alleviate 27, 28.
And then I think orbital compute will really solve that.
I do want to reframe orbital compute because I think when people hear data centers in space, which we discussed our last episode, they picture a Pentagon-sized building in space.
They're like, well, we can't do that.
That's not what it is.
A blackwell rack weighs 3,000 pounds, it's eight feet high, it's four feet deep, three feet wide, it's racks in space.
And SpaceX has showed you an illustration.
And it's a rack, that's the satellite, but it's probably about the size of a Blackwell rack.
It has these solar wings that are probably 500 feet long on each side.
You keep it in a sun-synchronous orbit.
So those solar panels are always in the sun.
Because it's in an exactly sun-synchronous orbit, the radiator, which extends behind it for hundreds of feet.
This is a common criticism.
Yeah.
How are you going to go over there?
I've spent a lot of time at Starbase over the years.
And I've talked to a lot of SpaceX engineers.
And I do think it is the most talented group of engineers on planet Earth.
