The Starlink constellation cost $10 billion. That’s comparable to a small data center (maybe 50,000 gpus).
If launch costs keep dropping and environmental costs keep rising, space based data centers will make sense.
Land cost will also start to matter, but probably not at the scale that Starlink is doing. Regardless, orbitals are real estate.
