SpaceX sent another 29 Starlink V2 Mini satellites into orbit on its 18th launch of 2026, pushing its constellation past 9,700 satellites. Meanwhile, the company quietly raised Falcon 9 launch prices to $74 million, up from $70 million last year.

A SpaceX Falcon 9 first-stage booster has made history by completing its 33rd successful flight, shattering its own record for reusability. The achievement validates SpaceX's engineering approach and rewrites the economics of access to space.

SpaceX has launched its 500th Starlink satellite of 2026, reaching the milestone before the end of February in a demonstration of the company's extraordinary launch cadence. The pace underscores SpaceX's dominance in both the launch services market and the satellite internet sector.

Hollywood has painted a romanticized picture of life on the Red Planet, from Matt Damon growing potatoes to Arnold Schwarzenegger surviving the Martian surface. But experts say the real challenges of off-world living are far more daunting and far less cinematic than anything science fiction has prepared us for.

Mesh Optical Technologies, founded by former SpaceX engineers, has closed a $50 million Series A led by Thrive Capital to mass-produce optical transceivers for AI data centers. The startup targets a critical infrastructure bottleneck as data centers scale to meet AI demand.

Space investors anticipate that SpaceX's planned 2026 IPO -- potentially valuing the company above $1.5 trillion -- will ultimately flood the sector with capital, but not before pulling attention away from smaller competitors.

SpaceX has dismantled the Crew Access Arm from Kennedy Space Center's Launch Complex 39A, shifting all Dragon missions to a nearby pad and opening the historic site for Starship operations in Florida.
