NextImg:Musk says SpaceX will begin decommissioning Dragon spacecraft

Elon Musk said his SpaceX company will decommission its Dragon spacecraft amid his escalating feud with President Donald Trump.

Absent the Dragon spacecraft, U.S. spaceflight could be hurt, given the government’s increasing reliance on SpaceX. The craft retrieved two stranded astronauts in March.

“In light of the President’s statement about cancellation of my government contracts, @SpaceX will begin decommissioning its Dragon spacecraft immediately,” Musk said in a post on X.

Before the decision, Trump hinted that the government could move to cancel contracts with Musk.

“The easiest way to save money in our Budget, Billions and Billions of Dollars, is to terminate Elon’s Governmental Subsidies and Contracts,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “I was always surprised that Biden didn’t do it!”

“Elon was ‘wearing thin,’ I asked him to leave, I took away his EV Mandate that forced everyone to buy Electric Cars that nobody else wanted (that he knew for months I was going to do!), and he just went CRAZY!” Trump added.
