US judge allows transfer of 700 acres of protected wildlife land to Musk's SpaceX
A US judge rejected an environmental group's request to block a federal land swap with Elon Musk's SpaceX. The deal gives SpaceX over 700 acres of Texas's Lower Rio Grande Valley National Wildlife Refuge to expand its Starbase site, in exchange for 683 acres of company-owned land. The refuge is home to animal habitats and historical landmarks.
