South Korea · Orbital data-center technology research program
This project focuses on orbital data-center technology research program.
KASA's K-Moonshot space data-center mission targets orbital validation of core technologies by 2030. Its research agenda covers power generation and control, radiation-tolerant AI computing and storage, thermal control and low-orbit communications. KASA proposes a validation satellite launched on Nuri. A funded constellation, awarded suppliers and operating service are not established. KASA subsequently consulted seventeen companies on August 10, 2026 about technology validation and industry supply-chain participation. No supplier selections or implementation funding were announced at that meeting.
