A new spaceport will bring 10 launch pads to Louisiana's Gulf Coast and support thousands of Starship launches per year.

SpaceX plans to retire its workhorse Falcon 9 once it gets the next-gen Starship megarocket online. But what will removing one of the most-flown rockets in history do to the current launch market?

SpaceX completed a single-engine test-firing of its next Starship spacecraft to prepare for its coming test flight, which will be the first to reach orbit.

"First reflight of the ship will be either end of this year or early next. That will be a fork in the road of history for consciousness reaching the stars."

SpaceX launched its 100th mission of the year early Wednesday morning (Aug. 19), sending 24 Starlink satellites to low Earth orbit.

"We can build something on our land. Something that will annoy Elon Musk. A grand monument to make him wonder, for a brief moment, 'Wait, am I a sad little b---- with no friends?'"

SpaceX started out as a launch company, but it has been transitioning into an artificial intelligence outfit — one that's poised to make huge profits in the coming years, Elon Musk says.

Without property rights in space, one of the most important economic incentives for the commercial development — and ultimately the settlement — of celestial bodies is missing.

SpaceX plans to build factories on the moon, using robots to do much of the heavy lifting, Elon Musk said on Tuesday (Aug. 4) during SpaceX's first-ever quarterly earnings call.
