> Some parts of the moon are permanently shadowed and therefore extremely cold, as low as -173 °C. This means that no energy or water would need to be expended to cool the data center.

That doesn't sound right to me. If there's no air, then only black body radiation can be used to cool the data center. That means a massive radiator, a lot larger than a heat-to-air radiator+fan used on earth.

They've got it all figured out, you just don't understand. Basically, the plan is:

1. Put data on the moon

2. ???

3. Profit

I'd love to know how they plan to offset the cost of moving every single nut and bolt to the moon with... Cheaper cooling?

I mean, Microsoft experimented with sinking data centers under the ocean. That's certainly cheaper and more performant than shooting a rocket to the moon. That experiment ended. Why?

Iirc a big issue they had was the fact it's nearly impossible to service the interior once you sink it down. That would basically get an order of magnitude worse with it on the dark side of the moon.
