NASA Taps SpaceX for More Astronaut Missions as Boeing's Starliner Hits Snags

NASA has awarded SpaceX another contract to transport astronauts to the International Space Station. This comes as Boeing's Starliner spacecraft remains grounded after a series of delays and setbacks.

The deal marks the sixth time that NASA has chosen SpaceX for a crewed mission, with the company set to begin its work in early 2027.

Meanwhile, Tesla is pushing ahead with the construction of its Optimus factory at Giga Texas. New drone footage shows the steel frame nearing completion, with concrete already poured on three upper floors and rebar laid for additional pours.
