SpaceX has been making significant moves both in space operations and financial markets over the past few days. On November 27th, a new crew successfully arrived at the International Space Station aboard the Soyuz MS-28 spacecraft. NASA astronaut Chris Williams and Roscosmos cosmonauts Sergey Kud-Sverchkov and Sergei Mikaev launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan and docked with the station's Rassvet module, expanding the ISS crew to ten members.
The aerospace company continues its aggressive launch schedule heading into the final month of 2025. SpaceX is targeting back-to-back rocket launches on Monday and Tuesday from Cape Canaveral in Florida, both dedicated to Starlink satellite missions. These launches come on the heels of an unprecedented achievement where SpaceX conducted its 100th and 101st orbital rocket launches from Cape Canaveral in a single calendar year.
In a notable cryptocurrency move, SpaceX transferred approximately 1,163 Bitcoin valued at roughly 105 million dollars to unmarked wallets in late November. The transfer was split between two addresses, with about 399 Bitcoin going to one wallet and 764 Bitcoin to another. Following the transaction, SpaceX's estimated Bitcoin balance sits around 6,095 coins. This marks the company's most significant cryptocurrency movement since late October when roughly 281 Bitcoin was relocated.
Meanwhile, classified satellite operations have drawn public attention. A constellation of defense satellites called Starshield, a classified version of SpaceX's Starlink internet service, has been emitting mysterious signals that may violate international standards. Amateur satellite trackers discovered the unusual transmissions, and the National Reconnaissance Office, which operates these satellites for the U.S. government, has conducted eleven launches of Starshield satellites since May 2024. The signals operate at lower frequencies than public Starlink, potentially allowing only 3G-level data transmission speeds. Experts debate whether the unusual frequency choices represent a deliberate strategy to obscure operations or simply a pragmatic use of available spectrum.
SpaceX also continues expanding its satellite constellation with successful launches adding to global connectivity infrastructure. The company maintains its position as the dominant force in commercial spaceflight and satellite internet deployment.
