These are expensive and unproven endeavors that may take years and billions of dollars to achieve.
Oh my god. When a journalist writes like any of this is remotely plausible within “years” and “billions” of dollars it really downplays the near impossibility of these events happening.
Technically if it takes 500 years and $17T it is still possible within "years" and "billions"
What possible reasonable benefit would there be to datacenters in space? Why would that even be a concept at all?
