SpaceX is building the Gigasat Factory in Bastrop This is the manufacturing backbone for Starmind. SpaceX’s plan to build AI data centers in orbit A full-scale factory designed to manufacture AI satellites at massive scale The layout shows how vertically integrated this gets: • AI satellite production • AI satellite development • User terminals • Gateways • PCB / silicon • Solar cells SpaceX is one of the only companies on Earth that can even attempt this because it already has the pieces: - Reusable rockets to launch them - Starlink experience to mass-produce satellites - Laser link infrastructure to move data - Solar and thermal systems for power and cooling - And now a dedicated Gigasat Factory to scale AI satellites The goal is rapid production and deployment of thousands of AI satellites starting as soon as late 2027 Starlink turned satellites into mass-manufactured internet infrastructure Gigasat will turn satellites into mass-manufactured AI infrastructure
