According to information from the automotiveworld portal, he filed for a license to inaugurate the Tesla Terafab North Campus in 2027, a joint semiconductor initiative between Tesla, SpaceX, and xAI, with a budget between $20 billion and $25 billion.
One of those businesses is the wireless industry, with the analyst noting that the mobile market for Starlink could eventually become bigger than its satellite internet offering. He's bullish on that business as well, believing it could increase its capacity to serve hundreds of millions of customers. He noted that if Elon Musk's prediction of $1 trillion in revenue by 2030 is anywhere close, SpaceX could be a $10 trillion company. Horan did say that Musk's Terafab chip foundry an

Tim Horan of Oppenheimer maintains a Buy rating and a $250 price target, viewing SpaceX as the only company capable of disrupting the AI landscape through full vertical integration. His rationale lies in SpaceX’s end-to-end control across satellite networks, ...

Musk announced in February that SpaceX would acquire xAI, a step in his plan to launch solar-powered, satellite-based data centers to run future AI models. In May, SpaceX announced plans to invest $55 billion to build a "Terafab" semiconductor factory in Texas, producing chips for artificial intelligence as well as robotics.

The broader pattern here is the ... right now is almost entirely held by SpaceX — which controls the launch vehicle, the satellite bus, the chip roadmap through its Terafab joint venture with Tesla, and the AI workloads through the merged xAI entity....
GRIMES COUNTY, Texas (KBTX) - SpaceX has officially signed its tax abatement agreement with Grimes County, making the proposed Terafab chip manufacturing facility one step closer to becoming a reality.
In March, SpaceX announced the project to build Terafab, a joint project with Tesla and xAI, to build a large semiconductor fabrication project centering on the construction of a vertically integrated "mega-fab" designed to produce more than one terawatt (one trillion watts) of artificial intelligence compute capacity per year, encompassing advanced logic chips...
On the other hand, SpaceX and Blue Origin are going at it alone — the two companies are competitors, and it doesn’t look like they’re cooperating with each other to develop the technologies required for space-based AI compute. It even seems that the former is intent on vertical integration, with its new 11-million-square-foot (around 190 to 200 football fields) Gigasat factory and Musk’s TeraFab megaproject.
Terafab is not a standalone project. It forms part of a broader ecosystem involving Tesla, xAI, and SpaceX, following their closer integration earlier this year. The structure suggests a vertically integrated model where one group designs AI systems, manufactures the chips, deploys them in vehicles and robotics, and processes data via satellite infrastructure.
SpaceX's AI1 satellite, which will ... is building a chip manufacturing facility called Terafab, but it will likely still use Nvidia's chips for various projects and capacities for the foreseeable future....
The proposed AI1 satellites represent upgraded versions of existing Starlink communications satellites but will require significantly more semiconductors. To meet this demand, SpaceX partnered with Tesla and Intel to create Terafab, a 10-million-square-foot manufacturing facility under construction in Austin.
The so-called AI1 satellites will be upgraded versions of those used for the existing Starlink communications network and will require exponentially more semiconductors. The sheer scale needed is so massive that SpaceX, Tesla and Intel have partnered to create Terafab, a 10-million-square-foot facility being built in Austin and slated to open in 2029 and which could cost up to $119 billion to build.
Radiation-hardened space chips — high-reliability processors for SpaceX satellites, orbital data centers, and deep-space missions · That dual mandate is what makes Terafab unusual. Most chip fabs specialize in one process node or market segment.
Two distinct chip families are in the pipeline: “D3” chips designed specifically for space deployment, and AI5/AI6 chips intended for ground-based applications like Tesla’s full self-driving technology and xAI’s model training infrastructure.
This manufacturing capability positions ... has a role in Elon's Terafab project, a chip manufacturing initiative with a goal of producing one terawatt of compute hardware each year....
