Compute Goes to the Moon: Firefly Runs NVIDIA Jetson in Lunar Orbit

Firefly Aerospace will operate an NVIDIA Jetson edge-AI module in lunar orbit on Blue Ghost Mission 2, processing imagery on-orbit instead of downlinking raw data. The hardware milestone is real; the OED read is that the binding constraint in space is shifting from sensing to compute and bandwidth.
