Wang Jian, an academician at the Chinese Academy of Engineering and director of Zhejiang Lab, said the "Three-Body Computing Constellation," jointly developed by Zhejiang Lab and global partners, is large-scale space computing infrastructure designed to host thousands of satellites with a total computing power of 1,000 peta operations per second (POPS) upon completion.

By enabling real-time in-orbit data processing, the facility aims to overcome the efficiency bottlenecks of traditional satellite data handling and advance the application and development of artificial intelligence in space, Wang said.

The construction of the constellation will greatly expand the boundaries of space applications, and will have far-reaching significance for the air and space industry, Wang added.
