Overview Energy transports solar energy from 15,000 feet high to the ground, with the next challenge being orbital satellites.

Overview Energy uses near-infrared lasers to send space-based electricity to existing solar panels, aiming to break free from day-night limitations, though climate and efficiency still need validation.

Former NASA engineer: Building a space data center is the worst idea I've ever heard.

A former NASA engineer and Google cloud expert explains why establishing data centers in space is a completely impractical idea, filled with challenges in areas such as power supply, heat dissipation, and radiation tolerance. This article is based on a piece written by Taranis, organized, translated, and authored by Dongqu. (Background: This man wants to send Bitcoin mining rigs into space: infinite sunlight + zero cooling costs is the holy grail of BTC mining) (Context: Moving the Three Gorges Dam to space, China plans to build a solar-powered space power station, will humanity welcome energy freedom?) To clarify, I am a former NASA engineer/scientist with a PhD in space electronics. I also worked at Google for 10 years, having been in various departments of the company, including YouTube and the cloud division responsible for deploying AI computing capabilities, so I am well qualified on this topic.

RWA Window in Asia: The Policy Gate of Vietnam and the Standardization Race in Hong Kong

The sea breeze rises from the South Seas, and the sound of the tide surges towards Victoria Harbour. Almost in the same week, Vietnam and Hong Kong simultaneously reached into the gearbox of real-world assets (RWA): Hanoi introduced legislation and permits, aiming for rapid ignition; Hong Kong, on the other hand, put pen to paper with regulatory "guidelines" on August 1, officially enforcing the Stablecoin Regulation, tying stablecoins to the keel of financial infrastructure. The two paths are like two racing cars under the starting gun: one uses law as a dam to channel the flow; the other uses regulations as a measure to calibrate direction. Who is faster, who is steadier, is determined not only by the convenience of the issuance channel and the depth of capital acceptance, but also by the future "pricing power" of assets and the weight of discourse. For the industry, this is a dual test of the system: can speed be controlled, and can steadiness be maintained? "Gate" and "Scale": Two Institutional Approaches to Opening Vietnam's actions carry a typical national project style, and its regulation of digital assets is undergoing a transition from
