China Is Building an AI-Powered Supercomputer Network in Space
Briefly

China's ambitious 'Three-Body Computing Constellation' project has launched the first 12 of 2,800 planned satellites designed to function as an AI supercomputer in orbit. These satellites, employing advanced eight-billion-parameter AI models, will enable on-site data processing, circumventing the delays associated with terrestrial computations. By harnessing their computing power of up to one quintillion operations per second, this constellation aims to deliver critical services such as gamma ray burst detection and creating digital twins of Earth's terrain. This development marks a significant step in the realm of orbital computing and presents a sustainable alternative to energy-intensive ground-based data centers.
China's new space-bound AI supercomputer project will allow for in-orbit data processing, offering rapid reactions without relying on ground-based facilities.
The 'Three-Body Computing Constellation' project includes 2,800 satellites, promising to rival the world's most powerful supercomputers with one quintillion operations per second.
