Orbital Intelligence
Orbital Intelligence is a long-form essay project on how Earth observation, AI, and orbital compute are converging into a planetary intelligence stack.
For most of human history, the planet was unqueryable. That is changing. Satellites, foundation models, and on-orbit compute are turning Earth into something closer to a continuously updated dataset — and the software layer built on top of it is what these essays are about.
Each volume is published in chapters. New chapters drop irregularly. If you want to be notified, subscribe from the cover page or follow the RSS feed.
