Starcloud, backed by Nvidia, has successfully trained an AI model in space using its Starcloud-1 satellite equipped with a powerful H100 GPU. This milestone demonstrates the potential for orbital data centers to operate complex AI models while reducing energy costs and environmental impact compared to Earth-based facilities.

Starcloud is set to revolutionize data centers by launching the first AI-equipped satellite, Starcloud-1, which will operate in space and utilize renewable energy to dramatically reduce energy costs and environmental impact. By leveraging the vacuum of space for cooling and nearly unlimited solar power, these extraterrestrial data centers promise significant advancements in processing capabilities and sustainability, with applications in Earth observation and real-time analytics.
