Tech giants want to build AI data centers on the Moon

Technology Nov 18, 2025

Big names like Jeff Bezos, Sundar Pichai, and Elon Musk are looking beyond Earth to solve AI's huge energy and space needs.
Google's Project Suncatcher leads the way, aiming to test solar-powered AI data centers in orbit by 2027.
The idea? Use off-planet solar energy and open space to power smarter tech.

Why this matters:

It's not just the big players—startups like Starcloud and Axiom Space are also exploring off-planet data storage.
China is joining in too, planning a network of 12 AI satellites that work together as a supercomputer in space.
These projects could kick off a new era for greener, more powerful data centers far from home.
