争执源于马斯克对特朗普减税和支出法案的批评，随后迅速升级。特朗普在发表讲话时对马斯克进行了猛烈抨击，而马斯克则在X平台上对 特朗普进行嘲讽，并威胁要退役由NASA使用的SpaceX龙飞船。尽管马斯克后来似乎改变了主意，在回应X平台上一位粉丝敦促他和特朗 普"冷静下来，退后一步，冷静几天"的帖子时，马斯克写道："好建议。好吧，我们不会退役龙飞船。"但外媒指出，这一威胁已经引发了广 泛担忧。 外媒称，龙飞船作为NASA唯一能够运送宇航员往返国际空间站的美国航天器，对于美国太空计划至关重要。目前尚不清楚马斯克所说的"退 役"具体指的是什么。除了执行NASA的任务外，"龙"飞船还用于商业载人飞行。SpaceX已经6次使用该飞船执行私人航天任务，包括绕轨飞 行以及访问国际空间站等。SpaceX还计划与私营公司Axiom Space合作，最早于6月10日再次发射"龙"飞船，将4名平民送往国际空间站。外 媒认为，如果SpaceX的合同被取消，可能会减缓美国太空的进展。 对此，NASA新闻发言人贝瑟妮·史蒂文斯在X平台发文称，NASA将"继续执行总统愿景"，并与行业伙伴保持合作。 分析人士则指出，马斯克与特朗普的争执不仅可能 ...
