2025 set an all-time record with $55 billion invested in the space economy. But the real story is the transition from "promise" to "utility"; we are no longer just building the railway; we are running the trains. We discuss the three major trends shaping 2026: the SpaceX IPO, the AI energy crisis, and the geopolitical "Golden Dome."
