SpaceX added more than $300 million to a funding round it announced earlier this year. In an SEC filing April 14, the company said it raised $1.16 billion in the latest round, amending a filing from February that stated it raised $850 million. The company didn't disclose other details about the round. That funding will likely go toward its Starlink satellite constellation and Starship launch system. At a conference Wednesday, SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell said the company expects to provide "consistent global connectivity" with Starlink by late this year, and projects Starship flying "large numbers of people" within five years.
