Key things to know about how Elon Musk boosted hard-right figures in Europe

Elon Musk may have tumbled from political grace in Washington, DC, but as he seeks to build a new political party, his power on X where he commands the most popular account remains unchecked.

Chinese researchers suggest lasers to counter Musk's Starlink satellites

Stealth submarines fitted with space-shooting lasers, supply-chain sabotage and custom-built attack satellites armed with ion thrusters. Those are just some of the strategies Chinese scientists have been developing to counter what Beijing sees as a potent threat: Elon Musk's armada of Starlink communications satellites. Chinese government and military scientists, concerned about Starlink's potential use by adversaries in a military confrontation and for spying, have published dozens of papers in public journals that explore ways to hunt and destroy Musk's satellites, an Associated Press review found. Chinese researchers believe that Starlink a vast constellation of low-orbit satellites that deliver cheap, fast and ubiquitous connectivity even in remote areas poses a high risk to the Chinese government and its strategic interests. That fear has mostly been driven by the company's close ties to the US intelligence and defence establishment, as well as its growing global footprint.
