  • Potentially greater power collection for use since solar arrays dont need to be built with the same space and enviromental constraints.

    Potentially already in the data path for a lot of communications with satilites being capable of both last mile and backhaul communication.

    Archtecture could take advantage of all three dimensions better again because of the extra space and different enviromental constraints (the big one being gravity). This is truer the more of it could be consteucted in microgravity.

    Physical security. Its pretty hard for someone to sneak in.

    Further failure domain segmentaion. I.e. hurricanes, earth quakes, etc not saying space is safe (good God not saying that!) but if you have a DC in florida, California, and above the earths mesosphere the likely hood that a disaster effects all three is pretty slim.

    Closer data transit for interplantery or lunar communication.

    Ignoring the costs and new hurdles of the enviroment this is what im tracking.

















  • Like a rat! About 3/4 of my career hops were exactly that. Some I was aware of, some because my red flags were just the surface apparently.

    As long as a job gives me enough of treasure we make AND I can meaningfully contribute I’m happy. Places going under tend to fail to do one or the other or both!

    One time I was just super lucky. I wanted to move from ops to less stressful engineering, and only found out that my old employer lost the client I was fully interegrated with.
