Google is sending an AI satellite into space next week

Google launches a satellite equipped with TPUs to test AI hardware in space. The launch, scheduled for October 1 aboard a SpaceX Falcon 9, is part of Project Suncatcher and will measure how TPUs handle radiation, thermal extremes, and physical stress in low‑Earth orbit. The data could pave the way for future orbital AI data centers.
