Musk: I am confident that SpaceX will be able to achieve the ability to transport 10 million tons into orbit each year in the future. The most critical missing link at present is 1 terawatt level of computing power.

Elon Musk: "To achieve an annual computing power of 1 terawatt, we need to launch about 10 million tons of material into orbit every year. Therefore, we are confident that this is feasible and does not require new physical principles or unattainable technology. In fact, I am very confident that SpaceX will be able to deliver 10 million tons to orbit each year in the future. Then we will gradually build a 1 terawatt solar power system, which will solve the problem of solar power supply and generation. Thus, the most critical missing link at the moment is the 1 terawatt level of computing power. This is also the reason why we are building Terafab."
