With SpaceX’s record-breaking IPO valuing the company at $2.1 trillion, Rinehart sees the venture as a rare opportunity to invest in long-term, transformative tech — especially its AI and off-world ambitions. Hancock Prospecting, already leveraging AI, may even supply critical minerals for SpaceX’s future infrastructure. Despite SpaceX’s unprofitable start and lofty goals like space datacenters and colonies, the stock surged 18% on day one, outpacing even Tesla and Meta. Rinehart’s move signals deep confidence in Musk’s ability to reshape humanity’s future — one rocket, one AI algorithm, one star at a time.
