Musk retweeted and quoted Ron Baron's view, in which Baron expressed support for Musk's deployment of solar-powered data centers in space. Baron stated, "We need more power, and Elon is doing just that." Baron expects Musk's goal is to conduct launches in 2027 and 2028 to send solar-powered data centers into orbit, and anticipates that space-based data centers will become significant by 2028, growing to a "huge" scale in the following years.
