SpaceX, the most valuable aerospace company in the world, has been on the brain a lot this week.
Catch up quick: The Elon Musk-led $210 billion startup has been tasked with picking up two astronauts from the International Space Station after their original ride — Boeing's Starliner spacecraft — was ordered by NASA this past weekend to return to Earth empty due to safety concerns.
A separate SpaceX rocket launch scheduled originally for yesterday was delayed again for two days due to weather, which means we'll have to continue waiting to witness the first-ever space walk by private citizens.
And overnight, Musk announced on X that SpaceX's Starlink satellite internet will be free for emergency services access.
The intrigue: All this, after a WSJ Opinion piece earlier this month argued for Musk to head NASA.
