Elon Musk\u2019s SpaceX is said to be preparing for an initial public offering that would be one of the biggest public listings to date. <\/p>\n

SpaceX\u2019s leaders and advisers are pursuing a listing of the rocket maker as soon as next year that would target a valuation of about $1.5 trillion, Bloomberg News reported. That valuation would put it close to Saudi Aramco\u2019s record when it listed in 2019 at a valuation of $1.7 trillion.<\/p>\n

Musk, 54, who heads Tesla<\/a>, the electric carmaker, and X, the social media platform, launched SpaceX in 2002 with ambitions to make travelling to space more affordable and accessible.<\/p>\n

The company designs, manufactures and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft. It also runs Starlink, the internet satellite service.<\/p>\n

The proposed flotation would seek to raise significantly more than $30 billion, according to the report.<\/p>\n

Musk said in June that he expected SpaceX to record revenue of about $15.5 billion this year. As the rocket maker becomes increasingly dominant in the commercial space sector, Musk said he expected the company\u2019s commercial revenue from space to exceed Nasa\u2019s budget of roughly $1.1 billion next year.<\/p>\n

SpaceX\u2019s reusable Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy rockets have significantly reduced launch costs, enabling the company to secure a substantial share of the global launch market.<\/p>\n

In 2024, SpaceX achieved a record-breaking year with 134 Falcon launches, making it the most active launch operator globally.<\/p>\n

SpaceX aimed to beat that record with 170 launches by the end of the year, as it attempts to meet growing demand for satellite deployment. SpaceX\u2019s revenue is driven largely by Starlink<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In early November 2023, Musk reported that Starlink had achieved breakeven cashflow. Under the Starlink banner, SpaceX has deployed thousands of satellites to deliver broadband internet globally.<\/p>\n

SpaceX is reported to be a frontrunner to win a crucial part of President Trump\u2019s \u201cGolden Dome<\/a>\u201d missile defence shield. The company would develop satellites that can track missiles and aircraft under the project.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Elon Musk\u2019s SpaceX is said to be preparing for an initial public offering that would be one of…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":177019,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[85,46,141,145],"class_list":{"0":"post-177018","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-space","8":"tag-il","9":"tag-israel","10":"tag-science","11":"tag-space"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177018","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=177018"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/177018\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/177019"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=177018"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=177018"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/il\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=177018"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
