Space Score Top 25

Methodology

• •The Space Score is a 0–1000 composite computed daily from SpaceNexus data across five pillars: Scale (30%), Government space demand (20%), Capital access (15%), Momentum (15%) and Flight record (20%). Every metric, formula, window and source is published on the methodology page, with a per-company breakdown.
• •Each metric is a percentile rank among the tracked companies that have a value for it, so the score measures relative standing on evidence we hold, not management quality, and not a forecast.
• •A pillar that does not fit a business (a flight record for a company that does not launch) is dropped and the weights re-normalised. A pillar that applies but has no data counts at the midpoint, so missing data neither lifts nor sinks a company. Companies with too little data are scored but not ranked, and every row carries a confidence label.
• •This table ranks the top 25 ranked companies by total score. Ties break on data coverage, then company name (A–Z), so the order is reproducible.
• •Editions are quarterly and dated by when the inputs were measured. The current quarter updates daily and freezes when the quarter ends. Rank movement is shown only against a previous edition computed under the same methodology version; the hand-set table retired on 2026-09-23 is never compared against.
• •This is not investment advice. The Space Score is a descriptive composite, not a forecast or a recommendation.

Inputs measured 2026-10-01 (UTC). Methodology version 3. The Data column is the confidence label and the share of the company’s applicable pillar weight backed by data.

Every metric, formula, weight and source, and each company’s pillar values and missing inputs, are on the Space Score methodology page.
