Planet Ventures Inc. (CSE: PXI) (OTC: PNXPF) (FSE: P6U) announced on April 8, 2026, a USD$125,000 equity investment in MCXGP Relativity Fund I, LLC, a special purpose vehicle that participated in the latest financing round of Relativity Space Inc. The investment marks a strategic move for Planet Ventures to gain exposure to Relativity Space, a private aerospace company led by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt since 2025, which is developing the Terran R fully reusable launch vehicle and exploring orbital data centers optimized for artificial intelligence workloads.
This investment adds to Planet Ventures’ growing space sector portfolio, which previously included exposure to orbital energy infrastructure and cislunar development opportunities. The private space sector has evolved beyond a phase where access to late-stage aerospace companies was limited to venture capital firms and strategic corporate investors. Through the emergence of special purpose vehicles and dedicated fund structures, smaller public companies can now participate in financing rounds that were historically out of reach. This shift is redefining how smaller public companies can gain exposure to some of the most closely held private aerospace opportunities.
Planet Ventures utilized that structure on April 8, 2026, announcing a USD$125,000 equity investment in MCXGP Relativity Fund I, LLC. The investment allows Planet Ventures to participate in the growth of Relativity Space as it advances its Terran R vehicle, which is designed to be fully reusable and capable of delivering payloads to orbit. The company is also exploring orbital data centers that could leverage AI workloads, a concept that aligns with growing demand for space-based computing capabilities.
The investment underscores the increasing accessibility of private space ventures for public companies. Special purpose vehicles like MCXGP Relativity Fund I enable smaller investors to pool capital and access deals that were previously reserved for large institutions. For Planet Ventures, this represents a calculated bet on the commercial viability of Relativity Space’s technology and the broader space economy. The company’s portfolio already includes positions in Mantis Space and GRU Space, which focus on orbital energy and lunar habitation respectively.
