When I asked Bard for some “out of this world” information on investing in space stocks , it gave me Virgin Galactic (NYSE: SPCE ), Rocket Lab USA (NASDAQ: RKLB ), and the iShares U.S. Aerospace & Defense ETF (BATS: ITA ). It also said, “ The space industry is still in its early stages, and there is no guarantee of success for any individual company. However, the potential rewards for investors who are willing to take on the risk could be significant.” For one, optimistic analysts at Bank of America and Morgan Stanley , for example, say the space economy could grow by over $1 trillion a year in the next decade.
