Our partners at Thales Alenia Space have launched the ASCEND project, a pioneering initiative exploring the feasibility of Data Centers in Space. This ambitious project aims to align with the European Green Deal and Digital Europe objectives by reducing CO2 emissions and enhancing digital sovereignty. 🌍💻
The ASCEND project involves developing space-based data centers that minimize environmental impact and eliminate water usage for cooling. These centers promise to provide a sustainable and scalable solution to the growing data storage demands. The project is financially sustainable, with significant potential for ROI by 2050. Thanks to the support of the EROSS SC project, a demonstration is scheduled for 2026. 🚀
