A 22-year gamma-ray mission ending on an uncontrolled reentry is a reminder that orbital assets are finite and deorbit risk is cumulative. Space and EO operators should be treating end-of-life planning and debris mitigation as core design constraints, not afterthoughts.
Deep & Emerging TechData Center Buildout Could Help Energy Prices
If data centers are treated as controllable loads that can soak up excess generation, they become grid assets rather than pure liabilities. Operators planning AI buildouts should be talking to utilities about demand response and co-location with renewables, not just negotiating cheaper power.
