New Delhi: In yet another jab at Jeff Bezos, SpaceX and Tesla founder Elon Musk has said that the Amazon founder is busy filing legal actions against SpaceX. Musk added that it was Bezos' "Full Time Job" after stepping down as CEO of Amazon.
Responding to a Tweet by CNBC space reporter, Musk wrote, "Filing legal actions against SpaceX is *actually* his full-time job".

Few days back, the Tesla CEO openly criticised billionaire Bezos on Twitter, saying he has taken retirement only to file lawsuits against SpaceX. Replying to a follower, Musk tweeted: "Turns out Bezos retired in order to pursue a full-time job filing lawsuits against SpaceX..."
Last month, Bezos-owned space firm Blue Origin sued NASA for picking Musk-owned SpaceX for its prestigious $2.9 billion Moon lander programme. After the lawsuit, the US space agency put SpaceX's contract on hold for the second time.
Amazon urged the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to dismiss plans by SpaceX to launch another cluster of satellites to power its ambitious space internet service called Starlink.
Starlink is currently powered by around 1,740 low earth orbit satellites, which serve an estimated 90,000 customers globally. The company is set to launch 30,000 second-generation satellites to boost the internet network.
