A federal lawsuit seeks to block a land exchange that would transfer more than 700 acres of wildlife refuge land to SpaceX, with plaintiffs arguing the deal would harm wildlife habitat, historic lands and public access.

Elon Musk's rocket company, recently merged with xAI, raised $75 billion in its initial public stock offering. It's the first of a trio of mega-IPOs from AI companies expected this year.

The mega rocket made its debut two days after SpaceX CEO Elon Musk announced he's taking the company public. NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman said Starship is now one step closer to the moon.

SpaceX tried to send Starship to space Thursday, but with just seconds to go, a problem with the launch pad forced them to abort. They're set to try again Friday night.

The money would help Elon Musk get people to Mars and build data centers in space.

SpaceX wants to put the two-stage rocket's massive booster through its paces. On Sunday, it postponed the launch "to troubleshoot an issue with ground systems."

NASA and SpaceX's Crew-11 mission is made up of two U.S. astronauts, one from Japan and a Russian cosmonaut. They'll be aboard the International Space Station for six months conducting research.

The private crew included Ax-4 mission commander and former NASA astronaut Peggy Whitson. It was her fifth trip to space and extended her record-setting duration to 695 days, the most of any American.

While Elon Musk took Washington, D.C., by storm, his company representatives and lobbyists were notching up big political wins in the heart of his vast business empire: Texas.

It's the fourth mission to the International Space Station for Axiom Space. The Houston company works with SpaceX for rides to the station and coordinates with NASA to use the ISS for its astronauts.
