Don’t they put plutonium reactors in space? Have to be able to cool those somehow?
The entire point of those is to produce heat to power a thermoelectric generator. And while most of the heat will be wasted, it is a rather small amount overall.
A data centre would require massive amounts of energy, most likely provided by solar panel arrays. Then the processors will convert all the energy to heat that has to go somewhere.



Both franchises have gone to shit these days.
