Donald Trump attends SpaceX Starship launch with Elon Musk in Texas

Donald Trump attended the SpaceX Starship rocket launch in Texas on Tuesday, marking a significant moment in his relationship with Elon Musk. Trump praised the launch as a historic event and wore his signature red hat. This launch was the sixth for the Starship, the largest rocket ever built. Musk, who previously refrained from endorsing candidates, has become a major supporter of Trump and will co-lead a new advisory body aimed at improving government efficiency. Musk has criticized the Federal Aviation Administration for delays in launch approvals, linking them to concerns about sonic booms affecting nearby communities. Senator Ted Cruz also attended the launch and will chair the Senate Commerce Committee, which oversees space issues.
