NASA Administrator Bill Nelson told Semafor that a Wall Street Journal report about calls between SpaceX founder Elon Musk and Russian President Vladimir Putin “should be investigated.”
Said Nelson: “I don’t know if that story is true… if its true there have been multiple conversations with Elon Musk and the president of Russia then that would be concerning particularly for NASA and the Department of Defense.
”“Musk has not responded to the allegations, and the Kremlin said that Musk and Putin only spoke once and only discussed “space as well as current and future technologies.”
