Futuristic Space based AI Data Centre and its Legal Challenges and Environmental Impacts

Author(s) Prof. Dr. VIJAYALAXMI RAJIV SHINDE, Rajiv A. Shinde

Abstract The proliferation of AI has increased the demand for huge data centers, raising major concerns over freshwater usage, energy, and carbon footprint. This way, space-based data centers have come as a response to traditional Earth-based ones, by possibly reducing environmental burdens. But environmental cost is still high in orbital domain. This study critically analyzes the environmental, legal, and ethical implications of those data centers. While there are ample solar energy and no dependency on land in outer space, new concerns are there. Constant satellite communication would cause electromagnetic radiation which damages ozone layer. Visibility of natural sky would also be reduced due to light pollution and orbital space would be even more congested.

There is a huge impact of these innovations, when it comes to transformation of outer space from shared to commercialized environment. This study also focuses of major gaps in existing global laws related to outer space in terms of cultural and environmental resource. It also explores rising concerns related to these developments and human rights, such as environmental rights and right to life to access untouched natural sky. With ethical critique, legal and sustainability analysis, this study has found that space-based data centers present complex challenges to the environment and regulatory bodies, despite being technically promising. This study recommends proactive frameworks to avoid compromising environmental balance while expanding AI infrastructure.
Keywords Artificial Intelligence, space-based data centers, outer space, satellites, natural sky, orbital space, fundamental right, nocturnal species.
