After its planned June IPO, Elon Musk's SpaceX could be unusually quickly included in the international MSCI World stock indices. According to available information, Santander, which is strengthening its investment banking presence in the United States, is also expected to take part in bringing the company to market.

Investor interest in SpaceX comes at a time when its competitor Blue Origin is dealing with a serious problem involving its New Glenn rocket. The machine belonging to Jeff Bezos's company exploded during a routine engine test in Florida. Blue Origin stated that an anomaly occurred during the incident and that no injuries or missing persons have been reported. zive.sk ↗
According to published information, the explosion affected not only the rocket itself but also a large part of Blue Origin's single launch pad. The event could have an impact on NASA's American lunar program, since New Glenn is meant to be an important element of plans related to cargo transport and technology for missions to the Moon. HVG ↗
The contrast between the two companies is striking. While SpaceX is preparing for its stock market debut and, according to headline reports, could push Musk's wealth toward a historically extraordinary level, Blue Origin will have to deal with the technical and infrastructural consequences of the crash. Further developments will depend on the investigation into the causes of the explosion and on whether the incident delays the planned missions associated with New Glenn. Deutschlandfunk ↗
