Google's satellite AI server sends first response from space

google's project suncatcher satellite has transmitted its first response from space, generating a haiku about being in space. the satellite uses google's tensor processing units tpUs and gemma 4 model to process the prompt. google launched the satellite into orbit earlier this month and plans to continue testing tpUs performance under thermal stress and radiation exposure. the successful test paves the way for google's next milestone of twin interconnected satellites in 2027. this initiative could eventually put ai data centers in space.
