Space Chats! Why World Leaders Are Talking to Rocket Bosses

Imagine building a giant fleet of flying Wi-Fi routers that zoom around our entire planet in outer space. That is what SpaceX does with its Starlink satellites! These spinning orbiters beam internet signals straight down to Earth, reaching snowy mountaintops and remote towns that regular cables cannot touch.

Recently, Russian President Vladimir Putin publicly called Elon Musk a "real genius" after discussions connected to space satellites. Running a giant rocket and satellite company means chatting with leaders from all over the globe, because outer space does not have borders or fences!
