Orbital targets 2028 first launch for space AI data centre vision
Orbital, a startup aiming to build artificial intelligence data centres in space, has raised $5 million in seed funding. The company plans to run AI inference in orbit to avoid power and siting constraints on Earth and reduce regulatory and permitting burdens. Founder Euwyn Poon says the business depends on lower launch costs, with SpaceX\'s Starship seen as key. Orbital targets a first data-processing spacecraft launch in 2028.

Developers have kept inference costs relatively low using invested funds, allowing companies to use advanced models below cost. With AI adoption spreading, more companies say costs are becoming a burden. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong forecast most work will shift to much cheaper models, a shift that could affect profitability at major AI firms.
