Hubble Researcher Uses Blockchain to Process Space Data

2018-7-24 21:12

A Hubble Space Telescope (HST) researcher is testing a blockchain network for processing the vast amounts of data produced.
Josh Peek, an associate astronomer with the Space Telescope Science Institute (STScI), told CoinDesk that the HST, like other space telescopes, requires “millions upon millions” of hours of computing power to process data, which can become expensive.
To that end, he is working with blockchain startups AIKON and Hadron to process the research data.
Specifically, AIKON provides an interface via which Peek can input the data, after which it is processed and rendered through computers comprising Hadron’s blockchain network.
Hadron is a “useful” proof-of-work blockchain, said AIKON co-founder and chief product officer Marc Blinder, that is processing the data Peek provides, with computing time paid for with AIKON’s “CPU” tokens.
