Stoke Space secures billion in Series E funding

🐿️ The Squirrel's Take
Stoke Space's billion-dollar cash pile shows it's betting big on leapfrogging SpaceX with a larger rocket before even reaching orbit.
💡 Why it matters
This massive funding round signals that investors see a viable path for a second reusable rocket player, potentially reshaping the commercial launch market and lowering costs.

Stoke Space completed the initial closing of a $1 billion Series E round to reach orbit and develop a larger, reusable rocket. The company aims to rival SpaceX in re-flying rockets, with plans for a debut launch soon.
