This unique work is going to do this Muslim -dominated country, which no other country could do, went out in technology

New Delhi. Abu Dhabi’s company Madari Space has revealed the plan to create a data center in space, especially in the lower earth orbit (Leo), so that the increasing demand for digital infrastructure can be met. In an interview to Bloomberg, Madari Space CEO Sharif Al Romthi said that this Amirati company is considering the idea to handle the rapidly increasing amounts of data being produced in both earth and space.

What will be the benefit of creating a data center in space?
Romathi said that a lot of data is being produced in space from the Earth Observations satellites. He said that this data is raw and unprofessed and needs to be sent to data centers on Earth. If we install data centers into space, we can store and process this data in space itself, which helps the data owners to make decisions in real time. The goal of Madari Space is to draw the attention of satellites and various space technology operators, as well as customers such as governments and big companies, who want to store their data in space in a safe and permanent way.

Energy saver will be made

In addition, making data centers in space in a way can also be considered more energy efficient, as the temperature in space is very low and low environmental temperature reduces the burden of heat management. Therefore, there will be low power consumption to cool the space -based data center.

“We are working very closely with the Office of Mohammed bin Rashid Space Center and the United Nations External Space Affairs. Our first mission plan is in the third quarter of 2026,” Romthi told Bloomberg when he was asked about the launch timeline of the company’s actual project, which is still in the R&D stage. This is another example of the ambitions of UAE’s digital change and technical progress.

Recently, it has become the second country with its own Stargate project, where global tech veterans have announced their partnership to make Stargate UAE. It will be made by 1GW compute cluster G42 and run from Openai and Oracle. This collaboration will also include CISCO, which will provide its zero-trust security and AI-Ready connectivity and will include Softbank Group as well as NVIDIA, which will supply the latest NVidia Grace Blackwell GB300 system.

And then the 5GW UAE-Rus AI campus, which will be built by G42 and operated in partnership with many American companies. This effort is based on the new structures created by the governments of the two countries-US-UAE AI Acceleration Partnership, which aims to deepen cooperation and partnership on AI and advanced techniques. The UAE and the US together will control the access to compute resources, which are reserved for American hypersscalers and approved cloud service providers.
