I cannot wait for the fall to arrive when the Delta spaceship will be unveiled! Hopefully, all financing and loans are in place!

I cannot wait for the fall to arrive when the Delta spaceship will be unveiled! Hopefully, all financing and loans are in place!

Only joking but I do have a couple of thousand shares!🤭

Over a million shares accumulated in two days. I am ready for some action!

I want to be a used spaceship salesman! Just need a few used ro🤣cketships and I am ready to go!

Brother, nobody can get around the way you do.

I am certain that if people are holding shares when the test flights begin, there are going to be happy faces. Ive had a healthy position here for awhile because it was obvious the price was going to tank due to loss of public interest while the new bird gets built. I just kept buying .
My calls will be worth a fortune, too .

Good scratch to be made right here. Sit tight. The AI thing and the SPCX thing are sorting themselves out. Good times ahead. Watch.

THV

$SPCE: Nicely done....... money made today...........

Moving out of the $SPCX trade and dropping money on the old fart $SPCE

Now $2.90

Beer money


GO $SPCE

On board or in the house the shares are growing in my portfolio

We are all on extra early as I see it! Buying shares whenever I see pps go down more!

They didn't build or assemble the engine yet.

They are well too busy selling shares.
Will not be surprised of another Reverse Split in the future.
Offering after offering after offering.

Not even sure they fixed their navigation problem as well.
Right about September, but 2028, 2030.

Getting a boatload of SPCE during the fi😆re sale!

Buying up all the cheapies as they are falling into my hands! Thank God! By September we should have our prototype Delta rocketship! God willing! 🤣

Possibly achieving speeds between 50000 mph and 200000mph. We are still a long ways off from light speed!

Obviously nobody is planning on going to Alpha Proxima this next go round. But shuttles back and forth to Mars may be feasible once the proper rocket design is put in place. Personally, my due diligence (as a suggestion) is to use conventional rocket engines to achieve orbit then utilize a super plasma type drive. It makes a lot of sense! Dual drive looks great. One type of system to achieve orbit then engine two takes over with plasma drive!

Well too soon. Target is around 2.20.

But thanks for the tip.
Now my free tip.
Trade that crap only.
The only reason they are public is for the small guys to finance their stupid lunatic project.
If they indeed succeed one day, they will become private before they produce any revenues.
Good Luck.

Biggest problem I see is this rotten Federal Reserve chairman who wants to raise interest rates. This is causing overall mayhem all day today! Warren Buffett knows all about this stuff! When it looks like a pool of blood buy in!

Buying up all that I can at fire sale prices. Suggest you do the same!

Trading under 3.00. What a FRAUD.

More dilution for that lunatic adventure.

Going back to under 2.40 is more accurate.
What a piece of garbage that thing is.

Tomorrow under 3$ as predicted.

They didn't build the engine yet for their new 6 seat dildo.
For years the main goal is to sell shares to finance their lunatic project.

It was just a pump and dump.

Tomorrow $5+.

Favorable prices!

What's happening here? Can someone explain short?

$SPCE Tesla ($TSLA) is moving like it just recharged on solar flares — traders leaning back into mega-cap growth, EV sentiment stabilizing, and risk appetite returning. When TSLA gets momentum, it tends to pull gravity with it.

Plug Power ($PLUG) is tagging along with its own rocket fuel — hydrogen names love days when growth, renewables, and speculative tech all get a tailwind. PLUG’s moves are usually high-beta, high-volatility, and today it’s acting like it wants orbit.

Together?
It’s EV + hydrogen + clean tech all lifting at once — a classic “risk-on, space-bound” combo. $PLUG $TSLA

60 days away from another delay and hopefully no crash.

They already killed the pilot with their lunatic stupid adventure.
They stole millions with their reverse split.
It is lies after lies, except selling shares.
Analysts value SPCE at 2.30. it is quite generous.

The company is preparing to expand commercial operations by September 2026. Do we have a goal here! Yes. The required ticket takes time to develop for interplanetary travel and tourism. We are sort of looking at Star Trek stuff here but it adds an element of excitement to the venture!

What a disaster here, the bottom nowhere to be found!

Under 3 in no time for that POS.

They probably diluted like nuts.
Read the files, the engine for the 6 seat dildo is not even built.
What they have is a glider.

to bad they fooked the momentum up, by issuing debt redemption plan, on watch for another trade if 5's old

Virgin Galactic Shares Slide After Debt Redemption Plan Involving New Stock Issuance (SPCE)June 2, 2026 9:39 AM
IH Market News Virgin Galactic (NYSE:SPCE) shares dropped 15% on Tuesday after the space tourism company revealed plans to redeem a portion of its outstanding debt through the issuance of common shares, a move that will dilute existing shareholders. The announcement came after a strong rally in the stock, with shares gaining 22% on Monday and soaring approximately 180% over the past month amid renewed investor enthusiasm for space-related companies and speculation surrounding a potential SpaceX public offering. Company Moves to Redeem Debt Ahead of Schedule On Monday, Virgin Galactic issued a formal redemption notice covering up to $30.5 million of its 9.80% First Lien Notes maturing on December 31, 2028. Rather than using cash, the company intends to satisfy the redemption through the issuance of common stock to noteholders, according to a regulatory filing. Management said the transaction forms part of a broader effort to strengthen the company’s balance sheet as it moves closer to commercial operations. Upcoming Debt Obligations Reduced Under the terms of its debt agreements, Virgin Galactic is required to redeem approximately $20.4 million of principal by September 30, 2026, followed by another $10.1 million by December 31, 2027. The company previously redeemed $10 million of the notes in May. If the current redemption is completed in full, Virgin Galactic would not face another required principal payment on the First Lien Notes until March 31, 2028. Share Issuance Linked to Market Price The exact number of shares to be issued will depend on the volume-weighted average price of Virgin Galactic stock during a five-day observation period. The structure allows the company to use equity rather than cash while reducing outstanding debt. However, Virgin Galactic retains the right not to redeem certain portions of the debt if its share price falls below a minimum threshold specified in the bond indenture during the pricing period. Strategy Aims to Improve Liquidity The company said the early redemption initiative is part of its capital management strategy as it prepares for the launch of commercial operations in the fourth quarter of 2026. According to Virgin Galactic, reducing debt ahead of scheduled maturities is expected to lower future interest expenses, enhance liquidity and reduce the concentration of debt-related payment obligations. Management believes the approach will provide greater financial flexibility as the company continues investing in its commercial spaceflight business. Investors React to Dilution Concerns Despite the potential balance-sheet benefits, investors responded negatively to the prospect of additional share issuance. The use of stock rather than cash to repay debt increases the number of shares outstanding, reducing existing shareholders’ ownership percentage and earnings exposure. The market reaction highlights the ongoing tension between improving financial stability and preserving shareholder value as Virgin Galactic works toward achieving sustainable commercial operations. With commercial service expected to begin in late 2026, investors will continue monitoring the company’s capital structure, liquidity position and execution plans as it transitions from development to revenue-generating operations.

Supersonic Launch Play Lands a $17.5M Vote of ConfidenceJune 2, 2026 8:35 AM
PR Newswire (Canada) Issued on behalf of Starfighters Space, Inc. (NYSE: FJET)CAPE CANAVERAL, Fla., June 2, 2026 /CNW/ -- USA News Group News Commentary - The space trade has rarely been louder. With SpaceX reportedly targeting a public listing at a valuation ranging into the trillions, capital has poured into nearly every adjacent name with a credible launch or in-space-services story, rerating the sector as a whole rather than picking single winners. In that environment, the companies that stand out are the ones doing something structurally different from the crowd of small-satellite builders and rocket startups. Starfighters Space, Inc. (NYSE American: FJET) is one of the few pursuing launch from a fleet of crewed, flight-ready supersonic jets — and it just attracted a $17.5 million institutional vote of confidence to scale that platform. Starfighters operates what it describes as the world's only commercial fleet of flight-ready MACH 2+ supersonic aircraft, flying from NASA's Kennedy Space Center on Florida's Space Coast. Rather than launching everything vertically from a pad, the company's architecture uses its F-104 aircraft as a reusable airborne carrier platform — carrying a rocket to high altitude and speed before release. The model targets the small, responsive end of the launch market: microgravity research, satellite deployment, hypersonic and defense testing, and rapid mission turnaround.See how the supersonic launch model stacks up against the field — view the full Starfighters Space briefing here.The financing and what it funds
In a May 22, 2026 announcement, Starfighters disclosed a roughly $17.5 million strategic equity investment led by global institutional investors, structured through a definitive securities purchase agreement and expected to close on or about May 27, 2026, subject to customary conditions. The company said it intends to direct the capital toward operational expansion, infrastructure development, and continued advancement of its STARLAUNCH platform — including launch-readiness initiatives, mission-execution capabilities, and broader space-launch operations."This financing represents a strong endorsement of our platform and long-term strategy," said Tim Franta, Chief Executive Officer of Starfighters Space. The company framed the raise as a milestone in its transition from operational-capability development toward scaled commercial execution across multiple space-access markets.The roadmap attached to the raise is specific. Near-term milestones include continued STARLAUNCH I mission activity and procurement scaling, alongside STARLAUNCH II development with a targeted space-demonstration flight timeline over the next 18 to 24 months — subject to regulatory approvals and program execution. For a company that listed on NYSE American only at the end of 2025, putting institutional capital behind a defined demonstration timeline is the kind of step that moves a story from concept toward cadence.The structure of the raise matters as much as the headline number. By bringing in institutional investors through a definitive securities purchase agreement rather than a retail-heavy placement, Starfighters is signaling the kind of backer it wants on the register as it scales — capital that tends to underwrite multi-quarter development programs rather than trade around single news events. For a micro-cap whose share price has swung hard on milestone flow, a more stable institutional base can matter to how the next phase of the story is funded and received. The company has framed the timing deliberately: secure the capital first, then carry out the operational and infrastructure build-out that a demonstration-flight campaign requires.It is also worth keeping the company's stage in view. Starfighters is still early in commercializing its model, and the capital is explicitly tied to launch readiness and infrastructure rather than to revenue already booked. That is normal for a pre-commercial launch company, but it means the investment case rests on execution against the roadmap, not on current financial results — a distinction investors in early-stage space names need to hold onto as the sector's broader rerating pulls valuations along with it.Why the supersonic-launch angle matters now
Starfighters has also been deepening its research footprint. The company recently expanded its partnership with Mu-g Technologies on parabolic-flight testing and a coordinated response to a NASA Request for Information for Parabolic Flight Services, work centered on Mu-g's modified Dassault Falcon 50 alongside Starfighters' F-104 operations. That ties FJET more directly into the microgravity-research and supersonic-testing niches that larger players tend to underserve. According to market commentary, the stock has been volatile around this news flow, with a sharp 30-day move higher even as its year-to-date performance remained negative — a reminder that small-cap space names trade on sentiment and milestones as much as fundamentals.The strategic logic rests on three converging tailwinds the company itself points to: government demand for responsive launch and test capacity, growth in the commercial space segment, and the public-market access that came with its listing. Whether the supersonic-jet model proves out commercially is still unproven — the demonstration flights ahead are the real test — but the differentiation is genuine. Few commercial aerospace companies are pursuing an air-launch architecture based on crewed MACH 2+ aircraft.Air-launch is not a new idea in the abstract — carrying a vehicle aloft before release can cut the energy a rocket needs to reach orbit and open up more flexible launch windows and azimuths than a fixed pad allows. What sets the Starfighters approach apart is the use of a fleet of high-performance crewed jets as the carrier element, drawing on an aircraft platform with a long operational heritage. The pitch to customers is responsiveness: the ability to support frequent, smaller missions — microgravity experiments, technology demonstrations, hypersonic and defense test articles — without competing for slots on the heavy-lift manifests that dominate the vertical-launch market. If the model works at cadence, it occupies a niche the sector's larger players have largely left open.Want the full STARLAUNCH roadmap and milestone timeline? Explore the Starfighters Space breakdown here.Four space names investors are watching alongside Starfighters
FJET sits at the speculative, pre-commercial end of a sector where even the established names are still scaling. The broader peer group shows how much momentum is behind launch and in-space services right now — and how uneven the results can be from one quarter to the next.Virgin Galactic Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SPCE) is the closest architectural analogue in the group — a commercial human-spaceflight company built around an air-launch model, in which a carrier aircraft lifts a crewed spaceplane to altitude before release, conceptually similar to the airborne-carrier approach at the heart of Starfighters' platform. In its first-quarter 2026 update, Virgin Galactic said it had moved the first of its new Delta-class SpaceShips from its assembly hangar to its test-and-launch hangar, with ground testing underway, and reported a narrowed net loss of roughly $65 million versus about $84 million a year earlier as it works through the final quarters of its pre-revenue phase.CEO Michael Colglazier said the company remains "on track to commence flight testing in Q3 and spaceflight in Q4 of this year," with a second SpaceShip already in fabrication and roughly 650 founding astronauts holding advanced bookings for flight windows in 2027 and early 2028. SPCE has been one of the sector's sharpest movers on the SpaceX-IPO narrative — a momentum dynamic FJET shareholders will recognize — and, like Starfighters, its investment case rests on converting a defined flight-test timeline into commercial cadence rather than on current revenue.Rocket Lab Corporation (NASDAQ: RKLB) is the bellwether for the small-launch-plus-space-systems model. Per its Q1 2026 results, Rocket Lab delivered record quarterly revenue of $200.3 million, up 63.5% year over year, with backlog of more than $2.2 billion and GAAP gross margins of 38.2%. Founder and CEO Peter Beck noted the company topped $200 million in a quarter for the first time, and guided Q2 revenue to $225–240 million. Its space-systems unit now out-earns its launch business — a maturation path smaller players aspire to.Intuitive Machines, Inc. (NASDAQ: LUNR) focuses on lunar access and infrastructure. The company reported record first-quarter 2026 revenue of $186.7 million — nearly triple the prior year, driven largely by its Lanteris Space Systems acquisition — along with its first positive Adjusted EBITDA of $2.7 million and a record quarter-end backlog of $1.1 billion, up $842 million from year-end 2025. New awards in the quarter totaled $428.9 million, and the company was contracted by the U.S. Space Force under the Andromeda IDIQ, which carries an anticipated ceiling value of $6.2 billion. LUNR illustrates how a government-anchored backlog can underwrite a high-growth space story — the same kind of public-and-defense demand Starfighters is targeting at a smaller scale.Voyager Technologies (NYSE: VOYG) rounds out the group on the defense-and-stations side. In its Q1 2026 results, the company raised full-year 2026 revenue guidance to $230–255 million on a record backlog of $275.3 million, up 54% year over year, and in late May was awarded a $16.5 million DARPA "Burn n' Go" Phase 2 contract for advanced solid-rocket-motor propulsion technology. Voyager's mix of missile-defense work, propulsion, and commercial space-station ambitions through Starlab speaks to the same government-demand thesis underpinning the launch and test markets Starfighters is chasing.Across all four, the common thread is the one driving interest in FJET: a sector being repriced on the SpaceX-IPO narrative, government demand for responsive launch and test capacity, and a market willing to pay up for differentiated access to space. The difference is scale and stage — these peers are scaling proven businesses, while Starfighters is funding its way toward first commercial demonstration.What to watch from here
For Starfighters specifically, the catalysts now cluster around execution against the roadmap the financing is meant to fund. Confirmation of the closing of the $17.5 million investment is the first checkpoint; from there, investors will watch STARLAUNCH I mission activity and procurement scaling, progress on STARLAUNCH II toward the targeted demonstration flight in the next 18–24 months, and any further development of the Mu-g parabolic-flight and NASA RFI work.None of this changes the fundamental reality that FJET is an early-stage company whose commercial model is still to be proven in flight, in a sector prone to sharp sentiment-driven swings. But the combination of a differentiated launch architecture, a Kennedy Space Center operating base, fresh institutional capital, and a sector-wide rerating gives the story more runway than most micro-cap space names enjoy at this stage. The demonstration flights ahead will tell investors whether the supersonic-launch thesis converts from concept into cadence.Stay ahead of the next STARLAUNCH milestone — get updates and the full Starfighters Space story here.About Starfighters Space

Got a truckload of this stuff. Been buying since well before the inaugural flights. Didn't expect the Spacex virus to knock it into orbit, not sure that it has as the whole enterprise is not related to space economy infrastructure.
I really thought this would not gain any attention again until they resumed commercial ops , so if it flattens out after June 12 until Winter I'm good with that as my average price in this is well under $3.

Anyway, what I came to say is that the longer term upside is high and if you time your buys with the momo swings you'll do very well here.They have quite a lot of tickets sold.

Good luck to everyone. Unexpected run here is very welcomed .

This stock has no boundaries! Look at the potential to hit $50 to $100 a share with no problem! I am excited. Plus I encourage membership in The Planetary Society of which I am a member!

8's chomp chomp

nice already 7.51, if everything aligns right will be one of those meme hype stock on space x debut imo

In $6.76

watch for dip entry for trade if it holds 6's

wheeeee :)

on fire overnight, $7.5

sweet sold some will ride the rest.

Gutsy move but it is the only way to make money with that crap company.

If timing is right, plenty of idiots will buy your shares 50 - 80 cents higher than your purchase price.

Virgin Galactic surges as flight-testing restart and SpaceX IPO excitement fuel rally (SPCE)May 29, 2026 6:28 AM
IH Market News Virgin Galactic Holdings Inc (NYSE:SPCE) continued its remarkable advance on Thursday, 28 May, with shares climbing 19.53% during regular trading before adding a further 14% in after-hours activity. The move positions the stock for a sixth consecutive day of gains and extends its cumulative rise to more than 83% over the past five trading sessions. The rally has been driven by a combination of company-specific developments and growing enthusiasm across the wider space sector, which has attracted renewed investor attention ahead of the highly anticipated SpaceX public offering. Successful VSS Unity flight boosts confidence A key catalyst behind the recent share price surge was the successful glide flight of Virgin Galactic’s VSS Unity spacecraft on 27 May at Spaceport America in New Mexico. The mission marked the company’s return to active flight-testing operations after a two-year pause and was viewed by investors as an important milestone in Virgin Galactic’s effort to resume commercial activities. Management outlined plans to continue flight testing during the third quarter of 2026, with commercial operations expected to restart in the fourth quarter. The company also reopened ticket sales for approximately 50 future missions, with seats priced at $750,000 each. Investors were further encouraged by signs of tighter financial discipline. Virgin Galactic reported a 26% year-on-year reduction in first-quarter operating expenses, reflecting efforts to improve cash management as it prepares for the next phase of operations. SpaceX IPO drives broader sector enthusiasm Beyond Virgin Galactic’s own progress, the stock has benefited from a powerful re-rating across the space industry following developments surrounding SpaceX (NASDAQ:SPCX). Investor interest in the sector accelerated after SpaceX filed documentation for its planned initial public offering on 21 May 2026. The listing is widely expected to become one of the largest public offerings ever undertaken, with estimates suggesting a valuation of approximately $1.75 trillion. The prospect of such a landmark transaction has sparked buying activity throughout the listed space ecosystem. Companies including Rocket Lab (NASDAQ:RKLB), Intuitive Machines (NASDAQ:LUNR) and Planet Labs (NYSE:PL) have all recorded strong gains as investors seek exposure to businesses connected to the expanding commercial space market. Virgin Galactic has emerged as one of the primary beneficiaries of this trend. As one of the few publicly traded companies offering direct exposure to the space tourism market, it has attracted significant interest from retail investors seeking to participate in the sector’s renewed momentum. The stock’s elevated short interest has also contributed to the move. With approximately 23% of shares sold short, continued positive sentiment could increase the potential for a short squeeze, adding further volatility to the share price in the weeks ahead. Valuation concerns remain despite momentum While market enthusiasm has driven Virgin Galactic sharply higher, some analysts remain cautious about the company’s valuation. Consensus recommendations remain broadly neutral, with an average target price of $3.55, implying downside potential of approximately 21.63% from recent trading levels. Critics argue that the company’s market value is increasingly disconnected from its underlying financial fundamentals. Virgin Galactic continues to generate limited revenue, trades at a price-to-sales ratio exceeding 200 and remains deeply loss-making at the operating level. As a result, many investors continue to view SPCE primarily as a sentiment-driven or narrative-led stock rather than a business supported by established cash generation. The sustainability of the rally may therefore depend not only on Virgin Galactic’s ability to deliver on its commercial flight plans, but also on whether investor enthusiasm surrounding the upcoming SpaceX IPO can be maintained once the initial excitement surrounding the listing begins to fade.
