Space Just Got Smarter: AI Models Now Orbiting Earth
China’s Three-Body Computing Constellation has leveled up cosmic tech with 10 AI models now fully operational in orbit! Launched in May 2025, this network of 12 satellites has spent nearly a year proving it can handle everything from snow-covered stadium detection to gamma-ray burst analysis 🌨️🔭.
Why This Matters for Your Future
Imagine satellites that process data before sending it to Earth – that’s exactly what Zhejiang Lab’s team achieved. Their 8-billion-parameter AI models recently:
- Mapped 189 sq km of northwest China through heavy snow ❄️
- Classified cosmic explosions with 99% accuracy ⚡
- Linked six satellites for real-time space teamwork 🛰️→🛰️
Next Stop: 1,000-Satellite Superbrain
By 2026’s end, this constellation aims to become the world’s largest space computing network, capable of 100 quintillion operations per second. As researcher Li Chao puts it: "We’re building an off-planet AI assistant for humanity."
From tracking climate change to planning smart cities, this tech could soon shape life both on Earth and beyond 🌆🚀.
