Is it normal that the atlas cache is 27 GB big?

If you have a lot of mods and multiple cache files, yes, it is normal. For Space age, atlas cache is usually ~3.25 GB.

I have only Space Age. I briefly had a factory planner mod and Staged Blueprint Planning active. But it sounds unreasonable that they would blow up the atlas cache that much. And what do you mean by cache files? I don't think that's something that I can even control. With that said, this is not normal. Can I just delete them?

Yes, you can delete them. The value is configurable in config.ini or "
The rest" options and is meant for players who know what they are doing. Atlas cache is disabled by default, it's advantage is to speed up game startup.
