Note sull'episodio

This week, a judge ruled that SpaceX – Elon Musk’s rocket company – can sue a California state agency for political discrimination. Earlier in the year, a similar lawsuit was struck down by the court, so this is a big deal for SpaceX and Musk! What happened, what could this lawsuit mean for California regulators, and why does this matter for us?
