Google2026-10-01 14:57:44Google moves ahead with its first space-based AI data center project, Project SuncatcherGoogle is working on what would be its first AI data center in space, according to a Techub News brief citing Crypto Briefing. The effort, called Project Suncatcher, is designed to tap abundant solar energy available in space to improve the energy efficiency and scalability of AI processing. The report says the initiative could reshape how AI infrastructure is deployed if it moves forward as planned. While the brief does not disclose technical specifications, launch details, or a timeline, it identifies energy access and scaling capacity as the core rationale behind the project. The item frames the plan as an infrastructure experiment that could change conventional assumptions about where large-scale AI compute can be built and operated.40
Micron2026-10-01 04:30:22Micron posts nearly 4x revenue growth in fiscal Q4, says memory supply will tighten further in 2027 and 2028Micron Technology reported record results for its fiscal fourth quarter of 2026 and issued first-quarter guidance that came in above Wall Street expectations on both revenue and adjusted earnings. The company said AI-driven demand for memory continues to strengthen and projected that supply-demand conditions in both DRAM and NAND will be tighter in 2027 and 2028 than they were in 2026. Fiscal Q4 revenue reached $54.229 billion, up 31% from the prior quarter and 379% from a year earlier, while non-GAAP net income came to $38.398 billion and adjusted EPS rose to $33.42. For fiscal Q1 2027, Micron guided to revenue of $61.5 billion, plus or minus $1.5 billion, and adjusted EPS of $38.15, plus or minus $1, both above market forecasts. Investors, however, focused on margins after the company projected gross margin of about 86.25% for the first quarter, below both the prior quarter’s 87% and analyst estimates of 86.7%. CFO Mark Murphy said the first quarter should mark the low point for gross margin in fiscal 2027, with improvement expected in the remaining quarters even as price increases moderate.40
