Days after US President Donald Trump touted cutting ties with Elon Musk’s SpaceX amid a falling out between the two moguls, the Trump administration looked into the matter, the Wall Street Journal reports.

A number of people familiar with the matter tell the newspaper that ultimately it was determined that most of the contracts could not be cancelled as they were vital to the US Department of Defense or NASA.

One individual tells the newspaper that some of the contracts could face additional scrutiny.
