HAWTHORNE, Calif. — (AP) — SpaceX, the rocket ship company run by Tesla CEO Elon Musk, has fired several employees involved in an open letter that blasted the colorful billionaire for his behavior, according to media reports. The firings occurred Thursday — the same day Musk addressed Twitter employees for the first time about his $44 billion deal to add that social media service to his business empire. Musk denied the sexual harassment allegations, and Shotwell last month sent out an email to SpaceX employees saying she believe the accusations were false. The open letter from SpaceX employees criticizing Musk asserted that some of his tweets sent out to his 98 million followers cast the company in a poor light. “As our CEO and most prominent spokesperson, Elon is seen as the face of SpaceX — every tweet that Elon sends is a de facto public statement by the company," the open letter said.

SpaceX has fired at least five employees involved in circulating a letter around the company that was critical of CEO Elon Musk.

SpaceX has cleared a key hurdle for its plan to launch a gigantic, futuristic rocketship into orbit from Texas.

The FAA found no major show stoppers in an environmental review at a Texas launch site.

SpaceX can continue developing and testing its huge Starship vehicle in South Texas, provided the company takes pains to mitigate its impact on the area, a long-awaited environmental review has found.

SpaceX must take 75 actions to make its launch site environmentally friendly.

The decision means SpaceX can next request a license from the regulator to conduct further Starship flight tests and begin operational launches from its private facility.

Tesla just filed its annual proxy statement with the SEC and revealed it plans a three-for-one stock split, and that board member Larry Ellison does not plan to stand for re-election. "We believe the Stock Split would help reset the market price of our common stock so that our employees will have more flexibility in managing their equity." A stock split of this nature could mean that more smaller investors feel they can afford the stock, but those investors are minuscule compared to major institutions. In its 2022 proxy filing, the electric vehicle and renewable energy business, also revealed that board member Larry Ellison currently owns 1.5% of Tesla shares. The filing also says that Tesla CEO Elon Musk currently holds 6% of Tesla shares.
