High-Performance Space Payload

Gaia 1.0 is our flagship orbital datacenter module. Engineered specifically as a modular payload, it provides the secure hardware infrastructure required to run high-performance compute workloads at the space edge.

  • Hardware Architecture: Adapting state-of-the-art terrestrial AI accelerators for space. We integrate next-generation datacenter chips into orbit without compromising their on-planet performance standards.
  • Thermal Management: Proprietary heat rejection strategies designed specifically for vacuum environments and continuous, intense compute workloads.
  • Efficiency: Optimized for maximum compute per watt, operating strictly within the power budgets of commercial satellite buses.
  • Security & Resilience: End-to-end secure hardware and software split containers allow customers to deploy their proprietary AI models in complete isolation, supported by fault-tolerant systems to mitigate radiation-induced single-event upsets (SEUs).

Orbital Processing Architecture

A secure infrastructure loop connecting sensors, orbital compute, and end users in real time.

Event/Routine Observation

Routine Observation covers disaster or defense event or sensor tasking.

Sensor layer

  • EO satellites
  • UAV / multi-modal data streams
  • Radar detection

UAV and terrestrial sources route through ground stations before uplink.

Connectivity layer

Relay constellation moving data between sensors, the hub, and the ground.

Gaia 1.0 Datacenter Hub

Runs inference on incoming data, reformats it into usable output, and can cue sensors to retask based on what it detects.

End user / distribution

  • Ground stations
  • Disaster aid teams
  • Military assets

Can issue new instructions back to the hub.

Action

Response is executed on the ground or in the field, closing the loop back to the event.

From Payload to Constellation

Our iterative approach to scaling high-performance compute in low-earth orbit.

Phase 1  |  Target 2028

Gaia 1.0 Payload

A modular, bus-agnostic compute payload designed to integrate seamlessly onto existing commercial satellite platforms. This phase validates our core thermal rejection architecture and secure containerization models in a live orbital environment.

Phase 2  |  Target 2029

Orbit Grid Platform

Transitioning from hosted payloads to purpose-built satellite buses. Engineered entirely around the thermal and power demands of continuous AI inference, driving down the capital cost per TFLOP to enable a truly scalable orbital datacenter constellation.
