Description

In this episode of Over the Air, Ryan Prosser talks with Sophia Space CEO Rob DeMillo about moving computing infrastructure beyond Earth's atmosphere, the unique challenges of orbital data centers, and why the next frontier of space exploration might be driven more by commerce than curiosity.


Editor’s Note: Rob meant to say 4 Kelvin, not “4 km,” when discussing thermal limits.
