SpaceX's acquisition of xAI has been presented as a response to the growing power and cooling demands of artificial intelligence. At the same time, the transaction reshapes Elon Musk's group of companies by combining launch services, satellite networks, data platforms, and AI development, with potential implications for how investors evaluate SpaceX's long-term prospects.
Blue Origin recently unveiled plans to deploy its TeraWave satellite constellation starting in the fourth quarter of 2027, signaling a strategic push into space communications beyond traditional launch services. According to DIGITIMES Research, TeraWave's core objective is not to compete in consumer broadband but to establish a space-based optical backhaul network, using satellites to handle high-capacity data transmission across regions and continents.
Taiwan's National Chung-Shan Institute of Science and Technology (NCSIST) has partnered with US-based B&P Littleford to forge a new chapter in Taiwan-US defense industry cooperation. The partnership will introduce advanced equipment and mature technologies, having successfully completed a capacity expansion plan for a 300-gallon pharmaceutical mixing facility and plant infrastructure after nearly four years of work.
SpaceX is in discussions to merge with other companies controlled by Elon Musk, including artificial intelligence startup xAI, as the rocket manufacturer prepares for a potential initial public offering later this year, Reuters reported.
Following its official proposal to "take computing power to space," China has unveiled a more concrete roadmap for future aerospace development as part of its 15th five-year plan.
Boeing's latest earnings report points to a more positive operating outlook for 2026, driven largely by improving aircraft deliveries and production progress. For the global aerospace industry, demand is no longer the primary concern—supply is.
