SpaceX Signs Computing-Power Agreement With Google
SpaceX filed a disclosure with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission on 5 June 2026 for a computing-power agreement with Google. The contract covers compute capacity from October 2026 to June 2029 and includes about 110,000 NVIDIA GPUs, CPUs, memory, and related components.
Agreement Structure
Google has agreed to pay SpaceX 920 million per month for compute capacity under the contract. The agreement can reach about 30 billion if it continues for the full 33-month term.
Contract Terms and Termination
Either Google or SpaceX can terminate the agreement with 90 days’ notice after 31 December 2026. If SpaceX does not deliver the committed GPU quantity by 30 September 2026, Google can terminate the agreement or accept reduced capacity with a corresponding reduction in monthly fees.
