Space IT Could Have a Wild Future Thanks to AI
- The application of power systems and automation systems technologies to the space industry has become increasingly relevant. The active growth of projects and services using Big Data, neural networks, and AI technologies may create a new direction for the IT industry - SpaceIT. SpaceIT will be based on the most promising technologies. Multifunctional autonomous heavy platforms with constant power supply from 50 kW, equipped with protected modules with server equipment. Development of photonic processors for verification of the settlement system using blockchain technologies.
- Main technical solutions include AI-based communication, navigation and space traffic control network, data collection and storage network in space, creation of automated production facilities in space. The creation of autonomous and reliable infrastructure in near-Earth and near-lunar space, on the Moon and Mars, as well as its development in the Solar System, is our future. The emergence of a network of stations will require the creation of systems for verified information exchange.
- Modeling systems are needed to create new solutions based on 3D printing to build stations and spacecraft directly in space. The large number of stations and spacecraft stimulates the creation of unmanned systems, which will become the main workhorses of space. To manage transportation flows, it is necessary to create and train an AI that will perform supervisory control functions. The creation of communication networks and data centers will lead to the development of a completely new information structure - the space internet.
- All this will give an impetus to the development of already existing technologies and solutions. It will create a completely new industry - space tech. This will significantly expand the capabilities of the IT industry on Earth. The synergetic effect of inter-industry integration will allow mankind to go into deep space.
