Tesla and SpaceX have confirmed plans for Terafab, a $16.8 billion semiconductor megafactory in Grimes County, Texas, that will exceed 100 million square feet, over five times the size of the current record-holder, China's New Century Global Center. The facility will produce chips for Tesla's robots and self-driving cars and for SpaceX's space-based data centers, and is expected to create at least 3,000 local jobs. Elon Musk described it as the largest and most valuable building on Earth by far, with total investment potentially reaching $119 billion across all phases.
