0:02

SpaceX and Tesla combining in some way.

today. I mean, Elon, do you see

company? And does that make sense from

0:13

you from your perspective over time?

they've been a great partner and we have

0:55

numerous beneficial transactions with

0:58

them and earlier this year we deepened

allow us to continue to work with them

1:05

on projects that Elon mentioned like
