"The vacuum of space provides natural cooling through radiators that dissipate heat into an environment hovering around minus 270 degrees..."

This is not how physics works. The lack of convection in space makes cooling harder, not easier. This isn't the only nonsense in the article but it's the worst part. How do we make it prohibitively embarrassing for companies to keep making this claim that AI data center cooling in space will just magically work?
