American billionaire Elon Musk returned to the spotlight after unveiling the new generation of the electric Tesla Roadster on Thursday evening, equipped with thrusters that allow it to lift off the ground and land. The car was revealed during a live-streamed event at a SpaceX facility in Texas, where it demonstrated jumps in the air using compressed air thrusters. Musk said production of the car will not begin before 2028, without announcing its price, while Tesla indicated that the version capable of 'flying' is not licensed for public roads. Meanwhile, Musk's name appeared in political files, after Ukraine complained about disruptions to the 'Starshield' network, the military version of Starlink.
