A SpaceX satellite internet subsidiary called Starlink also has been striking deals to set up in foreign countries. But it’s not clear how much is the result of cold business calculation and how much is due to politics, an advantage that could disappear as Musk leaves Washington.Accompanying Trump on his trip to Saudi Arabia earlier this month, Musk announced that the country had approved Starlink service for aviation and maritime use.
