Virtual data centres in space
Where should data centres be built? We talk to an entrepreneur hoping to build a virtual data centre in space, by using computing power that's already up there - in satellites. Also this week: A Facebook whistleblower, whose story inspired a new movie, talks to us about social media and AI. And could rotating sails help to reduce container ship exhaust pollution? Presenter: Chris Vallance Producer: Tom Quinn and Imran Rahman-Jones (Image: An illustration of satellites orbiting Earth and sending signals to each other for communication. Credit: Getty Images)
