This is equal as much a military projekt as starlink was from the start.
Its about puting decentralized computing into orbit where its hard to reach.
Massive datacenters on earth are a big target in case of war, even a low tech enemy can take em out.
Also is reduces latency for AI driven weapons systems on the ground, when the satelite with the computing is right overhead.
This means the military ground robot can be cheaper because it needs less computing hardware, that also reduces its energy consumption.
And like starlink, all this is funded by the DoD, under the guise of a civilian program using a bilionaire as cover…
