WASHINGTON — Nvidia is pushing its artificial-intelligence hardware beyond Earth, unveiling a computing module designed for space missions and potential orbital data centers.
The California-based company said March 16 at its annual GTC conference in San Jose that it is developing the Space-1 Vera Rubin Module, a computing system intended to bring more powerful AI processing to satellites and other space platforms.
Nvidia said the system is designed to deliver significantly more computing power than the Nvidia H100 GPU, a chip already being tested on spacecraft. The company expects the module to support future space-based data centers and onboard AI analysis for satellite constellations.
