Job listings and other indicators suggest SpaceX is working on a foundry in Bastrop, Texas, to make blades for large gas turbines, according to The Information. The reported project would bring production of a complex turbine component inside SpaceX rather than relying only on the existing supply chain. The evidence cited is indirect, and the summary does not confirm a completed facility or deployment.
