SCOPE
Phase I is a kilowatt-scale solar ASIC mining demonstrator in low Earth orbit. The goal is to validate the stack under real orbital constraints: power collection, compute, heat rejection, communications, and custody — not to announce a commercial megawatt fleet.
SUCCESS THEMES
Radiation — Payload and electronics behavior consistent with the LEO radiation environment for the mission duration.
Radiator mass and deployment — Heat rejection hardware that deploys and performs within a mass budget that reflects thermal simplicity and fault tolerance.
System density (W/kg) — End-to-end system watts per kilogram in a range that keeps LEO mining technically interesting for later diligence (numeric density gates stay in gated materials only).
Downlink — RF or laser path that delivers mining-related data and settlement telemetry with integrity suitable for multisig custody workflows.
ASIC thermal cycling — Mining silicon that survives and operates through orbital thermal cycles without relying on terrestrial cooling myths.
ARCHITECTURE IN OPERATION
Sunlight hits the PV array. Power conditions feed the ASIC board. Waste heat leaves through radiators. Results and custody telemetry travel over RF or laser to ground. Keys remain under multisignature control. Public pages stop at this narrative; quantitative private assumptions live only in gated materials.
WHAT STAYS GATED
Detailed mass budgets, launch economics, and scenario models are not published here. Qualified readers request the white paper.
