# SpaceX Events
Index of discrete events and deals that touch [[SpaceX]]. Canonical pages live in `/Events/` and `/Deals/`; this is the curated index that links to them, flags gaps, and grows as [[SpaceX Calendar]] beats mature.
> **Boundary rule:** one fact, one home. Events in `/Events/`, deals/contracts in `/Deals/`. Lifecycle: [[SpaceX Calendar]] → [[SpaceX Watch Log]] → `/Events/` (or `/Deals/`) page → indexed here.
## Deals & corporate events (canonical in /Deals/)
The capital map is [[SpaceX Investors]]; the contract index is [[SpaceX Contracts]]. Key existing records:
- [[SpaceX IPO Filing]] — the path to the June 2026 listing
- [[SPCX Nasdaq-100 Inclusion]] — July 7, 2026 index add; ~$4.3B forced buying into a thin float
- [[SpaceXAI Rebrand]] — July 7, 2026 completion of the xAI absorption into the SpaceX brand
- [[Blue Origin $10B Raise]] — ~$10B at ~$130B; the first credible capital counterweight to SpaceX's launch monopoly
- [[SpaceX Q2 2026 Earnings Report]] — Aug 4, 2026 maiden quarter; $7.81B revenue (+92%), $18.37B capex, −$541M; the segment split
- [[SPCX First Lock-Up Expiration]] — Aug 6, 2026; 911.5M shares (~$116B) released, no broad selloff
- [[Tesla-SpaceX Terafab Commitment]] — Aug 6, 2026; two public companies co-fund a $16.8B Texas fab with no disclosed split
- [[SpaceX $25B Bond Sale]] — June 2026 debt refinancing of X/xAI onto SpaceX's balance sheet
- [[xAI-SpaceX Merger]] — Feb 2026 absorption that created the conglomerate
- [[SpaceX SB-AMTI Award]] — May 29, 2026; **$4.16B** for the airborne moving-target tracking constellation; the largest single SpaceX award of 2026
- [[SpaceX SDN Backbone Award]] — May 26, 2026; **$2.29B** for the military data-transport backbone, formerly MILNET; where the sole-source argument is strongest
- [[SpaceX NSSL Phase 3 Lane 2 Awards]] — national-security launch
- [[SpaceX NSSL Phase 3 Lane 1 Awards]] — July 2026 $11.4B ceiling raise + $1.6B/18-launch task orders (Sensing and Targeting)
- [[SPCX Q2 2026 Institutional Ownership]] — Aug 14, 2026 first 13F wave; SpaceX's largest suppliers are also its largest shareholders
- [[Google-SpaceX xAI Compute Deal]]
- [[SpaceX-Anthropic Compute Deal]]
- [[SpaceX-Cursor Acquisition]]
- [[Starbase Louisiana]] — Aug 25, 2026; $100B campus in Vermilion Parish against a 25-year PILOT, a $25M conditioned donation, and six state acts passed before SpaceX was named
- [[SpaceX-Grain Management 800 MHz Spectrum Acquisition]] — Oct 8, 2026; up to 14 MHz of nationwide 800 MHz spectrum for Starlink Mobile, ~$8B cash per WSJ, pending FCC approval
## Launch operations (in /Events/)
- [[Starship Flight 13]] — July 24, 2026; first Starship flight to deploy operational satellites (20 V3 Starlinks), but a second consecutive booster-landing failure
## Adjacent / contextual events (Musk overlay, in /Events/)
SpaceX is inseparable from [[Elon Musk]]'s broader activity:
- [[Congressional SPCX Stock Purchases]] — six lawmakers buy the stock of the contractor they oversee; SpaceX PAC gives 94% Republican
- [[Musk Twitter-X Acquisition]] — the X side of the conglomerate
- [[Musk v. OpenAI Trial]] — AI-rivalry context for xAI
- [[Musk-Sacks Anti-Biden Dinner]] — political alignment
- [[Musk Federal Employee Doxxing]] — DOGE-era context
- [[Iran War 2026]] — 2026 Iran war; space/defense demand surge
## Gaps to fill
Candidates to build as dedicated `/Events/` pages:
- **SpaceX Founding (2002)** — Musk founds SpaceX; the origin of the empire's backbone
- **SpaceX IPO (June 12, 2026)** — the listing day itself (distinct from the [[SpaceX IPO Filing]] deal record); largest IPO in history
- **xAI absorption / conglomerate formation** — currently covered via [[xAI-SpaceX Merger]]; assess whether a standalone event page is warranted
- **Chinese commercial launch** — the vault has *no* coverage of LandSpace, Zhuque-3, or any Chinese commercial launch provider. The Aug 19, 2026 Zhuque-3 booster landing (first Chinese recovery of an orbital-class stage on land, third entity worldwide) makes this a live gap. Better built as a **section on [[Commercial Space Sector]]** covering the bloc than as a single-event page — a lone LandSpace stub would misrepresent a sector-sized hole.
