Space stocks tumbled with SpaceX's IPO launch, overshadowing it due to the new milestones in the origins of the Euphrates River. While SpaceX's record $75 billion IPO garnered interest, research revealed the ancient creation of the Euphrates, illuminating a period between 3.6 million and 1.6 million years ago.

Space stocks took a nosedive on Friday as investors aimed to cash in gains following SpaceX's extraordinary market debut. The Elon Musk-led venture surged by 28%, amassing a whopping $2 trillion valuation in what became the world's largest stock market listing.
