Jared Isaacman, NASA’s new administrator, says orbital data centers will happen if Elon Musk and SpaceX are betting on them now.
He also argued that NASA’s return-to-the-Moon effort cannot happen without SpaceX, calling the company’s capital position and engineering talent a major advantage. The post is a repost of a Moonshots podcast clip featuring those remarks.
