What happened
Oracle declared force majeure on its $165 billion Project Jupiter data center in New Mexico. The project, which requires 2.45 gigawatts of power, is stalled because environmental permits for the necessary 17-mile natural gas pipeline are being denied. Oracle's stock sold off 6.5% following the news.

Why it matters
Project Jupiter was intended to be the keystone of Project Stargate, a massive U.S. effort to build AI capacity spearheaded by OpenAI, SoftBank Group, and Oracle. The inability to secure the gas pipeline threatens the power supply for this critical AI infrastructure.
