SpaceX is reportedly preparing for an initial public offering (IPO) in mid-to-late 2026, aiming to raise over $30 billion with an ambitious valuation of approximately $1.5 trillion, which would make it one of history's largest stock market debuts.The significant funds are earmarked for developing space-based data centers and procuring necessary processing chips, an initiative that has drawn interest from Google CEO Sundar Pichai.Founder and CEO Elon Musk attributes the escalating valuation to the Starship rocket system's progress, the Starlink satellite internet network's expansion, and the company's record 134 Falcon launches in 2024.
