SpaceX and its SpaceXAI initiative are planning a large-scale Texas data-center push aimed at delivering about 1 gigawatt of compute, potentially matching or surpassing the company’s Memphis-area capacity. The company is evaluating multiple Texas sites, with options for greenfield builds or retrofitting existing warehouses, and has already relocated data-center personnel to Texas as preparation. Beyond terrestrial expansion, SpaceX is pursuing an 11-million-square-foot Gigasat facility in Bastrop to manufacture space-based AI data centers powered by solar energy. The moves follow AI computing agreements with Anthropic and Google, signaling a strategy to monetize AI infrastructure alongside aerospace operations. SpaceX’s broader activity has drawn investor interest and comes amid ongoing launch plans and a stock performance backdrop. SpaceXAI’s broader data-center ambitions align with the company’s neocloud goals and potential military engagements as it diversifies its compute footprint.
