Data centers in space

The US lunar probe Athena landed on the surface of the moon on March 6. Whether it landed undamaged is still uncertain. But it looks good, data has already been sent to Earth, so the probe is receiving energy from its solar panels. Athena is to search for raw materials and water. Also on board is a small data center called "Freedom". It has an SSD memory of eight terabytes and weighs one kilogram. The aim is to test whether a data center on the moon has a future. The moon can provide cooling in craters and solar energy is also readily available.

Sending data to Earth takes around one second, which would be too low for real-time access. Data centers will grow like mushrooms from the ground, and we are now investigating whether data centers in space would be a possibility. What data centers and artificial intelligence need now and in the future is vast amounts of electricity. And this is despite the fact that the energy efficiency of servers and data center infrastructure is increasing. In Germany, data centers consumed around 10.5 billion kWh in 2010. For 2025, the electricity demand is estimated at 16.4 billion kWh, and growth will continue.

This is because data volumes are rising steadily with increasing digitalization. Google, Microsoft and Amazon data centers already consume more electricity than megacities. No wonder that companies like these are turning their attention to nuclear energy, especially when climate change demands the use of clean energy. The construction and recommissioning of nuclear power plants is booming, and they need uranium. Investors can jump on the bandwagon with stocks like Uranium Energy or Uranium Royalty

Uranium Energy – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/uranium-energy-corp/ – is debt-free and owns ISR uranium projects in the USA. The company also has projects in Canada.

Uranium Royalty – https://www.commodity-tv.com/ondemand/companies/profil/uranium-royalty-corp/ – provides investors with the diversification inherent in a royalty company and is the only royalty company in the uranium sector. Uranium Royalty manages uranium interests and the ownership of physical uranium.
