    Never said it was. But if you want a solution NASA figured it out almost 3 quarters of a century ago. If the cooling solution is the thread that makes or breaks the concept sure you could justify being this irrational I guess or you could find the next better reason to be against data centers in space. Upto you.

    ...No, you can't, because then your point is "maybe one day, space magic will be real!" And that makes you sound like a lobotomite.
