Elon Musk told the world what SpaceX is building next. A sentient sun. He wrote it last night, quoting SpaceX's own announcement. "SpaceX has ordered 100 GW/year of HJT solar manufacturing equipment from Singulus in Germany. This is for Starmind to create a sentient sun." One hundred gigawatts a year of solar manufacturing equipment, ordered from Germany, for a factory in Bastrop, Texas. That is where SpaceX is building the Starmind satellites. SINGULUS, the German company making the machines, confirmed the first full production line is already under contract, worth more than 60 million euros, and arrives in the first half of 2027. More lines are planned as production scales. SpaceX has been funding that company since March, and again in October. They are building the supply chain themselves. Starmind is SpaceX's name for computers that live in orbit. They catch sunlight up there and send their results back to Earth through Starlink's laser links. The first satellite, AI1, has a 75 meter wingspan and a compute payload of up to 250 kilowatts. SpaceX says that in sun-synchronous orbit those satellites capture continuous solar power. No weather, and no loss through the atmosphere. The light just keeps arriving. Mike Nicolls, SpaceX's senior vice president of Starlink, said why the deal exists: "Partnering with SINGULUS gives us a high-performance manufacturing path for solar cells for our Starmind satellites at our production facility in Texas." The sun has been pouring energy into empty space for billions of years. Elon Musk ordered the equipment to put a mind in that light. The first line leaves Germany in the first half of 2027.
