- Claim candidate: Orbital edge compute for space-to-space relay has reached operational deployment (TRL 9) as of January 2026, validated by Axiom/Kepler SDA-compatible nodes — distinct from the data-center-class AI training use case which remains pre-commercial.

**Extraction hints:**
- The 3x cost premium with "solid engineering" vs. 7-10x with current technology quantifies how much Starship's cost reduction has already improved the ODC economics without any deployment yet.

- CLAIM CANDIDATE: Orbital data centers face a physics-based thermal constraint requiring ~1,200 sq meters of radiator per megawatt of waste heat, making the 1,200 sq km of radiator area needed for 1 GW of compute a structural ceiling on constellation-scale AI training.
