Google's AI satellite launches with SpaceX

SpaceX has launched the "Transporter-18" mission to deliver an experimental satellite for Google's "Sky Catcher" project, aimed at testing the performance of artificial intelligence chips (neural processing units) in the space environment. The project seeks to evaluate how these chips are affected by cosmic radiation and the effectiveness of cooling systems that utilize a combination of heat pipes and radiators. The satellite will operate in Earth's orbit for one year, with experiments on laser communication technology between spacecraft, in preparation for launching a large constellation of AI-enabled satellites—a plan by SpaceX to create one million Starlink satellites.
