Kelly LitznerGUEST
You're going to have to have an economic basis for that as you move out, but you also can base it on the mission space and start where you are and build on that.

Paul TillmanGUEST
I mean, I think there's a fine line between, quote, edge compute and, quote, data center, right? So how do I build a data center on Earth? I take a 42U rack.

Paul TillmanGUEST
If, as we start to see, you know, the interconnectivity between space vehicles go up, Where does the line switch over between a space vehicle with a single board computer versus a space vehicle with Multiple GPUs in it and then many space vehicles interconnected with many GPUs between them like I think you know fundamentally the future is disaggregated and certainly the journey to get to where we're talking about is a disaggregated journey where we have a you know, an increasing amount of connectivity that is space-to-space connectivity, not space-to-ground connectivity, that interconnects the vehicles that we put up.

Mike GrussHOST
Paul, can you talk a little bit about some of the experiments you've been a part of with Voyager and what you've learned from those from an on-orbit compute standpoint?
