It chalks up another $1.6 trillion to its connectivity business. The remainder is AI-related services, such as infrastructure.Over time, SpaceX sees its TAM jumping to $28.5 trillion - or about $3 trillion less than U.S. gross domestic product - entirely thanks to the growing potential of AI. The bulk of that comes from undefined enterprise applications, which SpaceX said will contribute to $22.7 trillion of the TAM.David Morrison, senior market analyst at Trade Nation, told MarketWatch in emailed comments that xAI likely accounts for $1 trillion of SpaceX's targeted $1.75 trillion market valuation. SpaceX is planning to begin trading as a public company on Friday.\"That's a big bet on xAI getting a durable competitive advantage over the competition in the coming years,\" Morrison said, pointing to the AI business's string of losses since it was founded three years ago.The payoff for that bet will likely take a while to be realized. Although a handful of multibillion-dollar AI computing deals may help xAI shore up its finances faster than previously expected, SpaceX needs its Starship efforts to pay off if it wishes to achieve its peak aspirations.While SpaceX's Falcon 9 partially reusable rocket has been the space industry's workhorse for years, it does have its limitations. Those can be overcome with Starship, a mega-rocket that SpaceX said can carry more than four times as much payload to low-Earth orbit as the Falcon 9.SpaceX has spent more than $15 billion developing Starship, which the company said could potentially slash launch costs down by as much as 99%. Pitchbook analyst Franco Granda recently told MarketWatch that SpaceX's future is \"all\" being enabled by the 407-foot-rocket.\"Starship is...going to revolutionize space, really. It's the first rocket design that is capable of full and rapid reusability,\" Musk said in a video posted this week. \"Reusability is the fundamental breakthrough.\"Musk wants to eventually be launching Starship more than once an hour, although for now it's still in the testing stage. Starship, which had a fiery end to its latest test, is expected to send its first payload to orbit in the second half of 2026, according to SpaceX's timeline.Once up and running for commercial use, Starship is expected to enable SpaceX to begin launching its advanced V3 Starlink satellites and AI satellites, which are core to its AI strategy. Musk and others see AI satellites that can serve as space-based data centers providing a solution to the energy-intensive needs of hyperscalers.Musk said this week that SpaceX will try to achieve a roughly annualized rate of 1 gigawatt per year of AI computing power in space by the end of 2027. Eventually, SpaceX wants to ramp that up to a terawatt a year, or 1,000 gigawatts.See more: Elon Musk says SpaceX doesn't need 'magic' to put AI data centers up in spaceThe 'Elon model'SpaceX's focus on AI draws comparisons to Tesla $(TSLA)$, which Musk helped found and leads as CEO.Tesla has made an overt pivot toward AI, namely humanoid robots and autonomous vehicles, and that transformation now consumes investors' attention. The company's main generator of revenue, electric vehicles, often plays second fiddle.SpaceX is in a similar situation, although investors aren't as dismissive of its main revenue engine: the connectivity business. That unit's potential is often touted by investors, such as the billionaire Ron Baron. It includes Starlink, which generated more than half of the company's revenue and most of its adjusted profit last year.\"This fits the Elon model of having a business that generates profit now (like Tesla cars), a business that is on the come (Tesla's Robotaxi/SpaceX data centers in space) and an unlimited TAM dream business (Tesla's Optimus/SpaceX Mars occupation),\" D.A. Davidson analyst Gil Luria said in a note to clients last month.The IPO's purpose, Luria believes, is to set up SpaceX for a merger with Tesla.
