SpaceX is such a bad ass company. In their IPO filing, they wrote this: • The first private company to develop and launch a liquid-fuel rocket to reach orbit (2008) • The first private company to successfully dock a private spacecraft with the International Space Station (2012) • The first to successfully propulsively land (2015) and refly orbital-class rocket boosters (2017) • The first to begin deploying a large-scale LEO broadband satellite constellation (2019); • The first private company to transport astronauts to orbit, returning America's ability to fly astronauts to and from the International Space Station (2020) • The first to manufacture consumer-grade phased-array user terminals at scale (2022); The first to deploy a large-scale LEO satellite-to-mobile constellation (2025) • The first to build a gigawatt-scale Al training cluster and largest coherent supercomputer (2026) • The first gigawatt-scale Megapack battery installation (2026); and • The only company capable of building orbital AI compute at scale. BOOM.
