SpaceX is moving all communications to the X social network
You will not only find all information on it, but also live broadcasts
This probably does not apply to content under the NASA heading for the time being
The launch of a rocket heading into space has always been a popular event. While in the past launches were not so frequent and, moreover, completely under the direction of state organizations, today rockets of private companies are heading into space more and more often, which at the same time have taken over research and development from the state to a certain extent. It is therefore not surprising that more than one company wants to have closely watched launches under their thumb, which are the culmination of all their work and also an ideal way to present their achievements to the public.
SpaceX now only on the X network?
SpaceX, owned by the eccentric billionaire Elon Musk, is no exception. He used to upload a whole galaxy of video content related to his rockets to the largest video platform YouTube, but with the takeover of the social network X (formerly known as Twitter), he slowly began to move all content there. In the beginning, all videos were available on both platforms, but now Musk has decided that he no longer wants to support the competition and all content will be available only on X.

At the same time, SpaceX also began to limit its presence on competing platforms, such as Instagram and Flickr. On the other hand, on the “home” X network, the company began to increase its activity drastically, and in addition to live broadcasts from several different angles, it also separated all information about Starlink from the main account. However, fans of YouTube and other networks still have one place to watch videos related to (not only) SpaceX’s Crew-6 – that place is the official channel of the space agency NASA.

However, for fans of Elon Musk and his companies, this is not a fundamental change. The billionaire has been communicating most of the important information on the X network for a long time, either through his official channel or through the profiles of the companies in question. It is therefore likely that all the activity of his other companies will be transferred to X in the future.
