Summary

SpaceX just raised over $85 billion in its IPO and may soon add another $20 billion via bond sale, fueling its ambitious space and AI ambitions. A major portion of that cash is headed to their AI division, where they’re building massive supercomputers — but powering them is a huge challenge. While they currently mix grid, solar, and Tesla Megapacks, they’re eyeing orbital data centers. To meet immediate energy demands, SpaceX could turn to NuScale Power’s small modular reactors — faster to build, cheaper, and ready in years, not decades. With NuScale’s designs already approved and modules in development, SpaceX might even acquire them to secure its energy future.
