Our thesis is that the solution to terrestrial scarcity is Orbital Sovereign Compute. The immediate leader in this space is not a traditional cloud provider (AWS/Azure), but the vertically integrated SpaceX / xAI nexus. By launching "Orbital Data Centers" via Starship, they are building a computational supply chain that bypasses the terrestrial power grid entirely.

Space architecture is a rapidly evolving field, intersecting disciplines such as traditional architecture, aerospace engineering, and materials science to create sustainable habitats for human life on celestial bodies. By 2025, advancements have been driven by AI, 3D printing, and resource-utilizing technologies. Emerging trends focus on addressing environmental challenges and enhancing psychological well-being in space.

Asteroid mining is becoming an increasingly viable industry, with significant advancements in technology and growing market interest in 2025. Companies like AstroForge are at the forefront of this space race, launching missions such as the ODIN spacecraft to test mining technologies. The market is projected to expand from $1.68 billion in 2024 to $2.07 billion in 2025, drawing attention from investors eager to capitalize on space resources.

Space has graduated from the realm of science fiction and government prestige to become a distinct, investable asset class. We are witnessing the dawn of a new industrial revolution—extending from Low Earth Orbit (LEO) to the Lunar surface.

While headlines focus on billionaire personalities and launch spectacles, the real story is the silent, rapid development of a trillion-dollar economy. Reusable launch systems have collapsed the cost of access, transforming space from a barrier into a business environment.

SpaceX’s Starship isn’t just a rocket. It’s a macroeconomic disruptor engineered to make space commercially inevitable. If the company’s cost targets are met — $10 million per launch and $10–20/kg to orbit — Starship could lower the barrier to space so dramatically that entire industries, once stranded on Earth by physics and finance, may lift off.
