Elon Musk, the founder of SpaceX, announced that the company is going public with what he claims to be the largest initial public offering (IPO) ever. Musk, speaking from SpaceX’s headquarters in southern Texas, reflected on the company’s humble beginnings, admitting he initially gave it less than a 10% chance of success. The official start of trading on the US stock exchange was celebrated with ceremonies at both the Nasdaq headquarters in New York City and SpaceX’s Texas headquarters. This milestone marks a significant achievement for SpaceX, which has grown from a risky startup to a major player in the aerospace industry.
