Crusoe shifts focus, pausing Boom turbine deployment at data centers
Crusoe has quietly pulled back from Boom Supersonic's turbine deployment, pausing those plans at its data centers. It's a sensible recalibration, not a retreat from the bigger picture. The pressure on data center power is intensifying, and as recent coverage in our related piece on US data centers potentially rivaling entire nations in natural gas use shows, every infrastructure choice carries weight. Crusoe's shift suggests a sharper focus on near-term priorities, which is exactly the kind of clarity this moment demands.
Racing to gas power, SpaceX's new foundry risks a familiar pollution problem
Elon Musk's secretive new SpaceX foundry could cast turbine blades and bring gas power online 18 months faster than anyone else. It's a bold move, but it's also a bet on a fuel source already drawing lawsuits and health studies wherever his turbines, and others', have gone. Speed matters, but not at the cost of repeating known harms. Crusoe shifts focus, pausing Boom turbine deployment at data centers, a reminder that this path carries real friction.
SpaceX delays removal of unpermitted turbines at xAI data center
SpaceX is building a new power plant for xAI's Colossus data centers, yet the existing, unpermitted turbines will stay put for another year. That is a long time to operate in a regulatory gray zone, and it raises fair questions about how swiftly infrastructure can outpace permitting. We are not here to judge the tradeoffs lightly, but the timeline feels stretched. For those wrestling with technology's ripple effects, our piece on questioning an AI clone offers a fitting, human counterpoint.
