The first public official to promote building large data centers in space was @SenatorRounds (Chair of the Senate Armed Services Committee on Cyber) was, so it was exciting for @EzraFeilden and I to share with him more about what @Starcloud_Inc1 is building. Great to see this

This is the future. I'm willing to bet on it. Almost a quasi-dyson sphere capable of extracting energy available in space (SUN), and using it to build civilisation. If in 15 years, we can go from no smartphone to near-sentient AI, I'm sure we can get to doing this well within
