SpaceX to lay off 10% of Workforce
Can you link to the failure to raise money? I thought they just secured 500 million.

$500M was the size of the offering; as of 3 January, they had only managed to raise $273M

They should open it to the public with a reg d/s. I would love to be able to invest into SpaceX.

That would endanger the long term plan of Martian colonization, which is not the most financially responsible thing to do. Elon is keeping SpaceX private so as to have some control over who invests, to make sure they’re onboard.

Reg d or s is still private. But there are limits to number of investors.
