UAE-based Madari Space will pilot sending data centers into space in 2026. Details around the satellite/data center the company is planning to launch, as well as how much capital the company will be investing in the project, weren't shared.
When asked about the company, Romaithi said that this would “address the exponential growth of data that is being generated both on Earth as well as in space. The data is all raw, unprocessed, and needs to be downstreamed to terrestrial data centers," he said. "By placing data centers in space, we have the ability to store and process this data in space, enabling the data owners to make informed decisions in real time.”
“And by addressing the data center operation in Low Earth Orbit (LEO), we have the ability to de-risk the operations and use LEO as a test bed to mature our technology before we can advance into deeper space and tackle the cislunar economy.”
