Starcloud is building the first orbital data center platform to power AI at scale using space-based solar energy and passive radiative cooling. It offers a scalable, sustainable, and cost-effective alternative to Earth-based compute infrastructure.
US-based Starcloud (formerly Lumen Orbit) is pioneering orbital data centers designed to solve AI’s growing energy bottleneck. By operating in geostationary orbit, Starcloud harnesses uninterrupted solar power and leverages the vacuum of space for ultra-efficient cooling, eliminating the land, water, and grid constraints faced on Earth. Its modular infrastructure supports rapid deployment of gigawatt-scale compute capacity, optimized for AI workloads. Backed by top-tier investors including Sequoia and Andreessen Horowitz Scout Funds, Starcloud is positioned to become a foundational layer in the future of global compute.
