Sources have revealed that SpaceX, the rocket company led by billionaire Elon Musk, has secretly filed for an Initial Public Offering (IPO) with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Initial reports suggest the company could be targeting a valuation of up to $1.75 trillion, with a potential listing anticipated around June.
