That story makes no technical sense. There's no benefit to doing this. Nobody should believe it any more than boots on Mars by 2030.

It's all BS. There is no viable way to put industrial levels of compute into a space based platform that can work within the severe thermal, power, mass/volume, radiation, reliability, and economic demands. It is just stupid smoke blowing to separate idiot investors from their money. J-school grads don't have a clue what they're parroting about.
