Several Employees At SpaceX Fired After Criticizing Elon Musk In Open Letter

Tesla CEO Elon Musk's rocket ship firm, SpaceX, dismissed many employees on June 17 who were part of an open letter criticizing the billionaire for his behaviors. Musk's activities, according to the letter writers, have been a “frequent source of distraction and embarrassment for us, particularly in recent weeks." Although it's unknown how many SpaceX employees were fired, Shotwell said the corporation thought the individuals had passed an unacceptable boundary.
