The space economy: how to invest in space and SpaceX

The global space economy is estimated to be worth $626 billion by 2025, driven by private companies providing around 70% of the capital for space exploration. The Lunar economy could be worth $127 billion by 2050, with potential for economic activities such as asteroid mining and space-based data centers.

The global space economy is expanding rapidly, driven by falling costs and increased private participation. Novaspace estimated the size of the space economy at $626 billion by 2025. Private companies now provide around 70% of the capital for space exploration. Most current revenue is generated from space-enabled applications on Earth, such as GPS and satellite internet. However, future opportunities may lie in space-based activities like asteroid mining and data centers. NASA's 'Moon to Mars' programs could create 69,000 jobs and support over $14 billion in total economic output. PwC estimated the Lunar economy could be worth $127 billion by 2050.
