Planet Ventures Inc. (CSE: PXI) (OTC: PNXPF) (FSE: P6U) has invested USD$125,000 in MCXGP Relativity Fund I, LLC, a special purpose vehicle that participated in the latest financing round of Relativity Space Inc., according to a company announcement on April 8, 2026. The investment underscores a growing trend where smaller public companies can access late-stage private aerospace companies through dedicated fund structures, bypassing traditional barriers that limited such opportunities to venture capital firms and strategic corporate investors.
Relativity Space, led by former Google CEO Eric Schmidt since 2025, is advancing the Terran R fully reusable launch vehicle while also exploring orbital data centers optimized for artificial intelligence workloads. The company's latest financing round attracted significant interest, and Planet Ventures' participation through the special purpose vehicle provides exposure to Relativity's next phase of development. Planet Ventures' investment adds to its 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. 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.

Planet Ventures utilized that structure on April 8, 2026, announcing 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.
