Anthropic Discloses $84.5B SpaceX Commitment — Does Starship Get Another Boost?
SpaceX (SPCX) rose 2.59% Tuesday, riding momentum from Starship's first orbital milestone, while an Anthropic filing revealed an $84.5 billion commitment to SpaceX, signaling that AI giants are directing compute and connectivity investment toward space. Elon Musk has previously stated that orbital compute capacity will far exceed analyst forecasts by 2028, with Starlink poised to become Earth's de facto internet backbone. With Anthropic backing the orbital compute story with $84.5 billion, will commercialization accelerate, or has the valuation already run ahead of reality?
