The rally extended across the space industry, with Planet Labs rising 21.4% and Momentus, a satellite transportation provider, increasing by 17.6%. Even traditional aerospace giants showed modest gains, with Boeing and Lockheed Martin up 2.2% and 2.3% respectively.

The market enthusiasm follows Trump's ambitious space exploration agenda, which could be executed through either NASA's $100 billion Artemis program or an expanded commercial partnership model. The latter approach has already proven successful, with SpaceX conducting regular ISS missions and supporting Intuitive Machines' recent lunar achievement. Trump's nomination of aerospace entrepreneur Jared Isaacman to lead NASA further signals a potential lean toward commercial space partnerships.
