She told a Texas court that son X "is only absent from California over [her] objection." Grimes, the musician who has three children with Elon Musk , told a Texas court last week that their eldest son X Æ A-XII Musk isn't with her in California "over [her] objection." The artist, whose real name is Claire Boucher, asked a Texas court on October 6 to throw out Musk's child-custody case. Their oldest child, three-year-old son X, is "only absent from California over [Boucher's] objection," according to the document, obtained by Insider. In his biography on Musk, Walter Isaacson wrote that with X Musk had a "free-range" parenting style that was far from "doting."

BEIJING, May 30 (Reuters) - A private jet used by Tesla Inc (TSLA.O) CEO Elon Musk has arrived in Beijing, according to a Reuters witness. Tesla did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether Musk had arrived in China. China is Tesla's second-largest market after the U.S., and the Shanghai plant is the electric car maker's largest production hub. The jet with its identifying tail number could be seen at Beijing Capital International Airport on Tuesday, according to the Reuters witness. While his plane was en route to China, Musk tweeted about advances in China's space program, which aims to land a crew on the moon before 2030.

Starship is SpaceX's next-generation rocket crucial for the company's commercial launch business and Musk's aim to start human colonies on Mars. The U.S. offers few such options and export controls would make building a foreign launch site difficult. SpaceX has eyed another Kennedy Space Center launch site for future Starship launches, LC-49, a few miles from LC-39A. But that location is in the midst of a lengthy environmental review that could take years. Plans for that orbital launch site, Spaceport Camden, were nixed by a local referendum after a lawsuit raised concerns about its environmental impact.
