Flexcompute Introduces Physics Twin for Space Plume Impingement to Assess Thruster Effects in Docking and Refueling

As space missions expand to include refueling, servicing and autonomous docking, mission teams need to understand how thruster plumes could affect nearby spacecraft. Flexcompute, a frontier AI lab building a Physics World Model, today introduced the Physics Twin for Space Plume Impingement. It enables engineers and AI agents to assess plume effects across a wider range of maneuvers while using less compute than traditional Direct Simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) methods.
