As space becomes increasingly strategic, the need for real-time AI processing at the edge—aboard satellites and spacecraft—has never been more critical. Traditional cloud-dependent AI systems struggle with latency and bandwidth limits in orbit, prompting a push toward more autonomous, on-board AI capabilities. But operating AI in space comes with unique challenges: harsh environments, limited compute power, and strict mission requirements. Meeting these demands requires cross-sector collaboration to shape standards, technology, and policy that will define AI’s role at the edge of space.
