Correction: the June 8 AI1 altitude is now given as Musk's spoken range of around 600 to 800 kilometers, and the 70 kW-per-ton figure is no longer attributed to the June presentation; the official Starmind page was already online before Musk's July 9 post; the page address is updated to spacex.com/spacexsi/starmind. Also added the FCC's August 28 letter and SpaceX's September 16 reply, the May 29 orbital-shell supplement, the Starlink Space Safety page, Musk's October 1 solar-power claim and his October 4 statement on renaming SpaceXAI to SpaceXSI; the official page's three limiting factors are mass to orbit, power generation and AI chips.

Correction: the official Starmind page has listed AI1 at up to 250 kW peak / 175 kW average (75 m wingspan, 210 kW solar array, 160 m2 radiator) since about August 4, 2026; 150/120 kW was the June 2026 design and the pre-August-4 page. Also updated Starcloud funding and Project Suncatcher status

Added primary-sourced August 24 Starmind platform and schedule plans

Correction: Fixed AI1's compute payload at 150 kW peak and 120 kW average throughout, removed a false current-versus-earlier distinction, and refreshed the official SpaceX source access date.

Correction: reference access date aligned with the as-of date of the vendor-agnostic language claim

Add August 4, 2026 earnings call: NVIDIA exclusivity, Vera Rubin NVL72 on ground and in space, 2027 launch start, 2 GW/10 GW compute targets, Q2 AI segment financials, market reaction

Linked the new Terafab article from the TeraFab mentions

Correction: fixed citation integrity flagged in review (merger and IPO facts now cited to CNBC and NPR rather than the Space.com naming piece; Starcloud is not described as NVIDIA-backed, its Series A was led by Benchmark and EQT; unquoted a Tom's Hardware paraphrase presented as a Musk quote)
