• Apple is focused on finding the next big thing in the tech industry.
• Wearable tech seems to be a large part of its future plans.
• Smart glasses and a more affordable Vision Pro are reportedly on its radar.

Apple is still figuring out its road map to launching another life-changing device.

When the Vision Pro headset launched in February, the $3,500 price tag and lack of a really great app gave mainstream consumers pause. Since then, Apple has been considering ways to push the headset product line forward and attract new customers, Bloomberg reported.

Those efforts reportedly include a cheaper and lighter headset than the Vision Pro and augmented reality glasses.

But changing the landscape of the tech industry can't happen overnight, and Apple has been known to take its time developing products. It finally announced the highly-anticipated Apple Intelligence feature at the Worldwide Developers Conference in June — weeks after competitors hosted splashy artificial intelligence demonstrations and years after ChatGPT took the world by storm.

The seemingly lackluster response to the expensive Vision Pro launch has led execs working on the product to do a bit of soul-searching around the way forward for the headset, Bloomberg said. They want to make Vision Pro a more mainstream product, though with both higher- and lower-price options.

Making a cheaper product is trickier, however. Apple has spent years working on a headset that would cost between $1,500 and $2,000, which is slated to be released by the end of 2025, according to Bloomberg.

That headset might be missing key features like EyeSight — the slightly creepy virtual pair of eyes on the lens of the headset — and it would need to be connected to a Mac or iPhone to work.

There's also a second generation of the Vision Pro in the works that could be faster, lighter, and more comfortable than its predecessor, but it won't arrive until the end of 2026 at the earliest.

Apple is also trying to develop augmented reality glasses, Bloomberg said. Although smart glasses have been slow to catch on with buyers, tech companies haven't abandoned their efforts — like, for example, Meta's Ray-Ban product. Apple has proved successful with wearable devices, like the Apple Watch, but it's too soon to know much about its AR glasses other than a tentative launch date in 2027.

Meanwhile, Apple is ditching other projects that it was once excited about. The company killed its self-driving car plans in February and recently got rid of Apple Pay Later — a service that was supposed to rival businesses like Affirm and Klarna.

It's yet to be seen whether this re-do of its plans for future Vision Pro technology will be what it needs to revolutionize the market, like the iPhone, or whether Apple will just have to come up with something else to get future consumers excited.

• Democrats have made abortion and reproductive rights a central issue this year.
• Senate Democrats are launching ads in key swing states attacking the GOP's anti-abortion stance.
• Polling shows rising support for legal abortion, with Democrats hoping to sway centrist voters.

Democrats are putting abortion — a topic they've historically downplayed — front and center this election.

The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee announced Monday, on the second anniversary of the overturning of Roe v. Wade, that it's launching an ad blitz targeting women voters in key swing states. The online ads attack the Republican agenda to limit access to reproductive care, ban abortions nationwide, and eliminate a person's right to make decisions about their bodies.

The ads will appear on women-focused lifestyle websites such as Cosmopolitan.com, HarpersBazaar.com, ThePioneerWoman.com, and WellPlated.com, the committee said in a press release Monday. And they'll reach voters in 10 key swing states — Arizona, Florida, Maryland, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wisconsin.

"Senate Republicans have spent years using every tool they have to take away women's right to make our own health care decisions," Annie Lentz, a spokesperson for the Senate Democrats' campaign arm, said in the press release.

"The anniversary of the Republican Supreme Court decision that overturned Roe v. Wade underscores the stakes of this year's Senate elections and the importance of protecting Democrats' Senate majority with the power to confirm or deny Supreme Court justices," Lentz continued. "These ads will remind voters of the threat GOP Senate candidates pose to our rights, freedoms, and health and why they must be defeated in November."

The debate no longer just about abortion — it's become about pregnancy itself and access to life-saving medical care.

According to a recent poll from Pew Research Center, a record-high 63% of US adults believe abortion should be legal in all or most states — 2 points higher than the months before the Dobbs decision came down in June 2022. And a record percentage of Americans — 32% — now say they would vote for a candidate solely based on their abortion stance, according to a Gallup poll.

Even Republican and moderate women are increasingly evolving their views away from the traditional GOP stance of a total ban — in February, 39% said their party's views on abortion are "too extreme," The New York Times reported, citing a public opinion researcher.

Democrats know the issue could be a turning point for independent voters and even some Republicans, and they're using it to their advantage.

Senate Democrats have been bringing more bills focused on reproductive rights to a vote — like the "Right to IVF Act," which Republicans blocked earlier this month.

And President Joe Biden has made it a central point of his 2024 reelection campaign. He's hoping that the issue of abortion can turn Florida blue this fall, and he's repeatedly promised to restore Roe.

• Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce have been dating since the summer of 2023.
• The pop star and the athlete, both 34, have been open about their affection for each other.
• Kelce recently joined Swift onstage in London during her performance on The Eras Tour.

We'll take a wild guess and say that Travis Kelce's favorite track from Taylor Swift's "Midnights" might be "Mastermind."

Shortly after he turned up to The Eras Tour with a friendship bracelet and a dream, the Kansas City Chiefs tight end began dating the multi-Grammy-winning superstar.

Kelce, 34, laid the groundwork last July. He made his feelings known for Swift, 34, after he failed to get some one-on-one time when she performed on his home turf in Missouri. Soon, all the dominoes cascaded in a line: Swift began attending NFL games, openly cheering for the Chiefs, and stepping out with Kelce for date nights in New York City. 

Keep reading for a complete timeline of their relationship so far.

July 8, 2023: Kelce attends Swift's Eras Tour show stop in Kansas City.

Kelce officially entered his Swiftie era when he attended the second of the "Anti-Hero" singer's two performances on his home turf.

Before the concert, held at Arrowhead Stadium, Kelce was seen chatting with other Swifties and even trading friendship bracelets, according to a video posted on X (formerly Twitter).

July 26, 2023: A few weeks later, Kelce says on his podcast that he wanted to give Swift his number at the show.

Speaking on his podcast, "New Heights with Jason and Travis Kelce," the athlete said he was "butt hurt" he couldn't give Swift a friendship bracelet (a tradition among Swifts' concertgoers) that included his phone number.

"I was disappointed that she doesn't talk before or after her shows because she has to save her voice for the 44 songs that she sings," Kelce told his brother and cohost, Philadelphia Eagles center Jason Kelce.

Jason then asked which number he put on the bracelet — the number on his Kansas City Chiefs jersey (87) or his phone number. 

"You know which one," Travis responded. He also quipped that while Swift "doesn't meet anybody" before her shows, he "took it personal."

According to Swift, she and Kelce began dating "right after" the podcast episode aired.

In an interview with Time magazine, Swift confirmed her relationship with Kelce and offered details about the beginning of their romance. 

"This all started when Travis very adorably put me on blast on his podcast, which I thought was metal as hell," she said. "We started hanging out right after that. So we actually had a significant amount of time that no one knew, which I'm grateful for, because we got to get to know each other."

September 21, 2023: Kelce says he's "thrown the ball in her court" and invites Swift to one of his football games.

Two months after his podcast episode, Kelce told ESPN's Pat McAfee that after trying to woo the Grammy winner with a friendship bracelet, he extended an invite to one of his upcoming games.

"I told her, 'I've seen you rock the stage at Arrowhead, you might have to come see me rock the stage at Arrowhead and see which one's a little more lit,'" Kelce said in the interview.

 "So we'll see what happens in the near future," he added.

September 24, 2023: Swift attends the Chiefs game against the Chicago Bears three days later.

Swift sent the internet into meltdown when she accepted to Kelce's invitation. However, according to Swift, the lovebirds were already official by the time she attended her first game on September 24.

"By the time I went to that first game, we were a couple," she told Time. "I think some people think that they saw our first date at that game? We would never be psychotic enough to hard launch a first date."

On that fated day, Swift was photographed wearing Kansas City colors as she watched the game from Kelce's private suite, alongside his mom, Donna Kelce.

When Kelce — already considered one of the best tight ends in NFL history — hauled in a touchdown pass from Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the third quarter, Swift rose to her feet and cheered.

After chest-bumping with another spectator in the box, the singer appeared to shout, "Let's fucking go!" as Mama Kelce smiled and applauded.

After the game, images of Kelce and Swift walking out of the stadium together and driving off in his old school convertible were shared on X.

The pair ended their night at Prime Social Rooftop, which Kelce rented out for Swift, his family, and his teammates, per Entertainment Tonight. In photos obtained by TMZ, the couple weren't shy about showing their affection for each other as Swift was seen wrapping her arm around Kelce's neck as they chatted to other partygoers.

In the days following, an anonymous source told People that Kelce and Swift had been "hanging out" and were still in the "super, super early days" of getting to know each other. 

"They're having fun," the source told the outlet. "This was Taylor's first time meeting his mom and dad, and everyone was enjoying themselves."

Meanwhile, Kelce debriefed the Swift-inspired frenzy on his podcast. He thanked her for "pulling up" to his game, saying he "sure as hell enjoyed this weekend."

September 27, 2023: Kelce speaks about Swift again on his podcast.

During an episode of "New Heights," Kelce joked that his personal life is "not so personal" anymore.

"Shout out to Taylor for pulling up," he said. "That was pretty ballsy."

Kelce went on to praise Swift for her behavior with his family at her first Chiefs game.

"I just thought it was awesome how everyone in the suite had nothing but great things to say about her. The friends and family," he said. "She looked amazing, everybody was talking about her in great light. And on top of that the day went perfect for Chiefs fans, of course."

"To see the slow motion chest bumps, to see the high fives with mom," he continued. "To see how Chiefs kingdom was all excited that she was there, that shit was absolutely hysterical and it was definitely a game I'll remember that's for damn sure. And then we just slid off in the getaway car at the end."

October 1, 2023: Swift attends a second Chiefs game a week later — and brings some of her famous friends.

During the Chiefs game against the New York Jets at MetLife Stadium in New York, Swift supported Kelce again and brought along some A-list pals.

Swift was spotted watching the game alongside Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, Sabrina Carpenter, Hugh Jackman, Sophie Turner, and Antoni Porowski. 

While Swift and Kelce left the stadium separately, it seems they had spent some time together beforehand; the Super Bowl champion was spotted by Page Six leaving Swift's New York apartment that morning.

October 4, 2023: Kelce tries to get the NFL to pull back on its coverage of Swift at his games, declaring on his podcast, "They're overdoing it."

Kelce said the NFL had gone overboard in their coverage of Swift during an episode of his podcast, released on October 4. 

"I think it's fun when they show who all is at the game. I think it brings a little more to the atmosphere, brings a little bit more to what you're watching," Kelce said.

"But at the same time, I think they're overdoing it a little bit," he continued.

NBC Sports, which aired the game, made frequent cuts to shots of Swift cheering on the Chiefs. The NFL also briefly changed bios on Instagram and X to reference Swift after the Chiefs beat the Jets.

In response, the NFL defended its coverage of the pair in a statement obtained by ESPN. 

October 5, 2023: Kelce celebrates his 34th birthday. Swift reportedly flies to Missouri to spend the weekend with him.

According to multiple outlets, the "Fearless" singer spent a few days with Kelce following his 34th birthday.

Us Weekly, Page Six, and the Daily Mail reported that Swift flew from her home in Nashville, Tennessee to Kansas City, Missouri the day after his birthday.

The two were not seen out together, and an anonymous source told Us Weekly that the pair chose to have a "chill night" together. It's unknown when Swift left, but she was not present at the Kansas City Chiefs game against the Minnesota Vikings the following Sunday.

October 12, 2023: Swift shows up to her third Chiefs game, one day after premiering "The Eras Tour" movie.

The "Cruel Summer" singer returned to the Arrowhead Stadium to cheer on Kelce as his team took on the Denver Broncos.

In a video shared by People, Swift was seen wearing a Chiefs-branded jacket for the game, where she caught up with Kelce's parents in the family suite. She was also seen speaking with Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Kelce's teammate and close friend, Patrick Mahomes.

Photos published by Mail Online showed what appeared to be Swift's security team outside Kelce's home until Friday afternoon, suggesting that the pop star had stayed the night.

Kelce's mother later discussed the "whirlwind" caused by Swift's game-day appearances.

"I thought it would be over at that point, but it seems to just continue, and every week just seems to trump the week before," Donna said during an episode of the "Got It From My Momma" podcast. "So it's really kind of wild, a wild ride." 

October 14, 2023: The couple is photographed holding hands in public for the first time.

Swift and Kelce were photographed holding hands after enjoying a date night in New York City.

The outing marked the first time the two have been photographed by paparazzi in public together, and many took it as confirmation of their relationship.

Their first public display of affection came after the pair dined at celebrity hot spot Nobu, per photos and video obtained by TMZ and Page Six. 

Swift and Kelce later went to Rockefeller Center, where they made separate surprise appearances on NBC's "Saturday Night Live." They finished the night at the show's after-party, pictures from Getty Images showed.

October 15, 2023: One day after crashing "SNL," Kelce and Swift hold hands again after dining together in New York City.

Swift and Kelce were photographed by paparazzi after spending Sunday night at Waverly Inn. 

Swift has dined at the West Village hot spot before, most notably in 2016 with Cara Delevingne, Lorde, and Jack Antonoff.

October 22, 2023: Swift attends another of Kelce's games in Kansas City.

Just a few days before the release of "1989 (Taylor's Version)," Swift was on hand to support the Kansas City Chiefs as they took on the Los Angeles Chargers.

She was filmed cheering for Kelce, looking concerned when he fell, and performing an elaborate handshake with Brittany Mahomes.

Swift and Kelce were also photographed together at a post-game party, alongside Kelce's teammate Mecole Hardman Jr. and his girlfriend Chariah Gordon.

Gordon shared a series of photos on Instagram, including one of Swift kissing Kelce on the cheek.

October 22, 2023: Jason Kelce says that Travis is "excited" about his new relationship.

After the Chiefs beat the Chargers, Jason opened up to NBC Sports about his brother's new relationship and the frenzy it has caused.

"It's certainly been weird, the level that it is now," he told NBC Sports on Sunday night. "On one hand, I'm happy for my brother that he seems to be in a relationship that he's excited about, that he is genuine about. But there's another end of it where it's like, 'Man, this is a lot.'"

"This is another level of stardom that typically football players don't deal with," he added.

October 24, 2023: Kelce's dad praises Swift as "smart" and "genuine."

In an interview with People, Ed Kelce described Swift as "a very, very sweet, very charming, down-to-earth young woman."

The athlete's father also praised her first impression as "very genuine," presumably referring to the Chiefs game on October 12, when Swift and Ed were seen chatting in the stands.

"I'll tell you something very special that I noticed about Taylor the first time I met her," Ed shared. "We're sitting in the suite, she gets up and in the front room, she gets up to go get a drink or something and she starts picking up empty bottles, cans, plates that are scattered around. Because in the suites everybody gets stuff and you empty it down wherever you can."

"And I'm just thinking, I don't think she got the diva memo. She didn't get the spoiled musician," he continued. "She doesn't know how to pull that off. And that really to me said a whole lot."

November 3, 2023: Kelce responds with a smile when asked if he's "in love" with Swift.

At a press conference in Frankfurt, Germany, where the Kansas City Chiefs would soon play the Miami Dolphins, Kelce fielded a direct question about his feelings for Swift.

According to ESPN's NFL reporter Jeff Darlington, the reporter asked, "What is the latest status and are you in love?"

"I got to see her last week. That's the latest status right there," Kelce said of their current status, though he added, "I'm going to keep my personal relationship personal."

A video of the exchange shows that Kelce was grinning as he replied.

During a recent episode of his podcast, Kelce also said it was "cool" to see people dress up as him and Swift for Halloween, though his brother thought it was "pretty creepy."

November 10, 2023: Kelce joins Swift in Buenos Aires the day after she kicks off the Latin American leg of the Eras Tour.

Swift and Kelce were spotted at a restaurant in the Argentine capital after Swift postponed her second scheduled show in Buenos Aires due to "truly chaotic" weather in the city, she wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter).

According to People, the couple appeared to be joined by Swift's dad, Scott Swift, as they dined in a private room at Elena restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel Buenos Aires.

November 11, 2023: Kelce attends his second Eras Tour concert, where Swift changes the lyrics of "Karma" in his honor.

Swift made a small but significant change to "Karma" during her second show in Buenos Aires as Kelce watched from the VIP tent, alongside the pop star's father, Scott Swift.

"Karma is the guy on the Chiefs, coming straight home to me," Swift sang with a giggle, per multiple videos captured by fans at the Estadio River Plate concert.

TikTok user @flormosso caught Kelce's reaction to the moment, when the crowd erupted into cheers. The two-time Super Bowl champ covered a huge grin with his hands while Scott patted him on the shoulder.

Kelce later said he "had a little bit of a clue" that Swift was preparing something special for the show, but once he heard the lyric change, it "still shocked me."

"I was like, 'Oh, she really just said that,'" he said on his podcast.

November 11, 2023: Swift and Kelce share their first public kiss.

When her second concert in Buenos Aires ended, Swift left the stage and ran into Kelce's arms as he waited for her by an exit.

The couple shared their first public kiss as fans cheered.

November 20, 2023: Kelce praises Swift in an interview.

In a cover story for WSJ. Magazine, the NFL player said he was a Swiftie before he began dating the pop star.

He praised her songwriting, especially her song "Blank Space," and even described Swift as "a genius."

"I've never been a man of words," Kelce said. "Being around her, seeing how smart Taylor is, has been fucking mind-blowing. I'm learning every day."

He also said he's been hesitant to discuss their relationship in public because he doesn't want to spook her.

"That was the biggest thing to me: make sure I don't say anything that would push Taylor away," he said.

"Obviously I've never dated anyone with that kind of aura about them… I've never dealt with it," Kelce added. "But at the same time, I'm not running away from any of it."

December 3, 2023: Swift attends another of Kelce's games in Green Bay, Wisconsin.

Once again, Swift was photographed cheering for Kelce in a private suite with Brittany Mahomes. (Unfortunately, the team lost to the Green Bay Packers 27-19.)

"They're both really hard workers, and he acknowledges her art is hers, and he has what's his," an anonymous source told People. "He understands the territory their relationship comes with and like he said, isn't letting any of the hoopla impact how they're growing together."

December 6, 2023: Swift confirms her relationship status with Kelce and says they're "proud of each other."

Swift opened up about Kelce in a cover story for Time magazine, which named her Person of the Year for 2023.

She said she enjoys attending NFL games "to support Travis" and praised him for openly courting her on his podcast.

Although Swift has a complicated history with dating in the public eye — and has kept previous relationships extremely private — she said there's nothing to hide when it comes to Kelce.

"When you say a relationship is public, that means I'm going to see him do what he loves, we're showing up for each other, other people are there and we don't care," Swift told Time. "The opposite of that is you have to go to an extreme amount of effort to make sure no one knows that you're seeing someone. And we're just proud of each other."

January 26, 2024: Kelce says he and Swift are happy to ignore the "outside noise."

During a Chiefs press conference, Kelce fielded questions about navigating his relationship amid his growing fame.

"As long as we're happy, we can't listen to anything that's outside noise," Kelce said. "That's all that matters."

Kelce added that he'd be "silly" to deny Swift's role in his growing fan base, but his priority is still his job.

"I brought this upon myself, and I do enjoy having fun with it all, and the biggest thing is making sure my focus is right here in this building," Kelce told reporters.

January 28, 2024: Swift celebrates with Kelce when the Chiefs secure their spot in the Super Bowl.

For her 12th NFL appearance, Swift watched the Chiefs beat the Baltimore Ravens to secure their spot in Super Bowl LVIII.

After the game, she joined Kelce and his family on the field to celebrate. The couple shared several hugs and kisses in front of the crowd.

February 11, 2024: Swift joins Kelce on the field after he wins the Super Bowl.

At the 2024 Super Bowl, Kelce and the Chiefs became NFL champions for the second year in a row. Swift had flown from Tokyo to watch the game and could be seen celebrating the historic win in a VIP box, flanked by friends and members of Kelce's family.

Later, she joined Kelce on the field, where the couple shared several intimate hugs and kisses.

April 13, 2024: Swift and Kelce attend Coachella together.

Swift and Kelce were spotted in the crowd at Coachella watching pals Ice Spice and Bleachers perform. 

Several videos showing the couple dancing and kissing at the music festival circulated on social media. Swift also wore a "New Heights" hat to support Kelce's podcast.

Kelce later said that he prefers to watch concerts "from the fans' perspective."

"I'm a fan of the music. I'm a fan of live shows," Kelce said on his podcast. "I want to see it from the front of the stage. Yeah, we probably could've finessed it that way [watching backstage], but I think it's just that much more of an experience if you're in the pit, man. If you're in the madness with all the fans. It was awesome though."

April 19, 2024: Swift releases her new album "The Tortured Poets Department," which may include a nod to Kelce.

Swift's 31-track double album "The Tortured Poets Department: The Anthology" contains two songs that may nod to Kelce.

The first is "The Alchemy," which doubles as a love song and an ode to Swift's enduring career. The lyrics feature several sport-related metaphors like "Call the amateurs and cut 'em from the team" and "Where's the trophy? He just comes running over to me."

According to the liner notes, "The Alchemy" was copyrighted in 2023, so it's unclear how deeply tied to Kelce it can be. (Swift's albums are typically finished several months ahead of their release date, ensuring vinyl factories have enough time to fulfill preorders.)

However, "So High School," which also seemingly references Kelce, was released in the album's deluxe half, meaning it wasn't included with physical copies of the album. A song can be made available to stream almost immediately after completion, so it's possible the song was written more recently.

"So High School" is perhaps the only straightforward love song on "Poets," depicting a relationship that transports Swift back to her "You Belong With Me" days — the giddy rush of young love and lust.

The track appears to include direct references to Kelce, including, "You know how to ball, I know Aristotle," "You knew what you wanted and, boy, you got her," and, "Are you gonna marry, kiss, or kill me?"

Back in 2016, Kelce played a game of "Kiss, Marry, Kill" with AfterBuzz TV, in which he chose to kiss Swift.

April 27, 2024: Kelce calls Swift his "significant other" at a charity gala.

Kelce brought Swift as his date to the 15 and the Mahomies Foundation Golf Classic gala in Las Vegas.

In a highlights reel shared by Kelce's teammate, the couple can be seen walking into the event holding hands.

Other clips shared by fans at the event show Kelce and Swift cuddling and kissing at their table. At one point, Kelce made a speech and referred to Swift as his "significant other." For a surprise auction item, they sold four tickets to The Eras Tour for $80,000.

May 12, 2024: Kelce watches Swift perform her 87th show on The Eras Tour.

When Swift returned to the stage for the European leg of The Eras Tour, she had adjusted the set list to perform songs from "The Tortured Poets Department." The new segment includes "So High School," possibly as a nod to her current relationship.

Swift's fourth and final performance in France also happened to be the tour's 87th show. Kelce, who wears No. 87 for the Chiefs, was in the audience. He was spotted dancing with Swift's close friend, Gigi Hadid, and filming Swift on his iPhone.

"Can you believe it's our 87th show tonight?" Swift asked the audience during her acoustic set, just before playing "The Alchemy" and "Begin Again" as the evening's surprise songs.

During the concert's "1989" segment, Swift also debuted a new outfit: a glittering yellow top with a red ombré skirt. Fans interpreted this as a nod to Kelce and the Chiefs, whose colors are yellow and red. (Kelce previously said his favorite song of Swift's is "Blank Space" from "1989").

Finally, to close the evening, Swift tweaked the lyrics of "Karma" to salute "the guy on the Chiefs" for the second time.

June 23, 2024: Kelce makes his debut appearance on The Eras Tour stage.

During Swift's third and final performance in London, Kelce made a surprise appearance during her onstage costume change for "The Tortured Poets Department."

This scene depicts Swift getting shot and killed at the end of "The Smallest Man Who Ever Lived." Then, she's picked up and revived by a set of dancers dressed as ringmasters. These characters force Swift to strip down, put on heels, and keep performing through the pain — a segue into her meta bop "I Can Do It With a Broken Heart."

Kelce joined the skit as another ringmaster. He picked up Swift's body from the stage, carried her to the fainting couch, and mimed applying powder to her face with a makeup brush. 

Kelce is now cemented in Swiftian history as the first boyfriend to join Swift onstage during one of her concerts.

• Elon Musk gave YouTuber Tim Dodd a tour of SpaceX's Starfactory rocket production center.
• Starbase, located in south Texas, has transformed from tents to a massive production facility.
• SpaceX hopes the factory will lead to serialized production of the Starship rocket.

Elon Musk gave an early glimpse into SpaceX's new Starfactory production facility.

Just a day before Starship's Flight 4 successfully landed in the ocean, Musk was at the SpaceX site giving science YouTuber Tim Dodd, known by his channel moniker "Everyday Astronaut," an exclusive tour of SpaceX's rocket factory, including the new facility.

Located in south Texas, Starbase, which just a couple of years prior consisted mostly of tents, has now transformed into a massive facility that Musk anticipates will "dramatically improve production."

"We've got this pretty good-looking rocket factory building that we've almost completed," Musk said. "This will enable us to have serialized production of the rocket, especially the ship, which would ultimately, long term, probably be making a thousand a year of the ship."

Musk showed off various sections of the factory, including the Megabay, which holds three booster rockets. Viewers also saw a closeup of the Raptor engines that power Starship's Super Heavy booster.

Musk explained the new design of the next-gen Raptor, which will not require a heat shield but instead will have integral cooling circuits throughout the engine. "So it looks very simple on the outside, but it's complicated on the inside," Musk said.

The SpaceX CEO also took Dodd inside the brand new Starfactory, which, once completed, is expected to have multiple production stations. Musk said that the now barren site "will be filled with equipment in three months."

"We'll finally have a real factory for Starship," Musk said. "Not just making it in tents."

• The Education Department is requesting information on expanding Public Service Loan Forgiveness eligibility.
• It's considering the inclusion of for-profit early childhood educators in PSLF.
• 450,000 more workers could benefit from the program if they have federal loans, per federal estimates. 

President Joe Biden's Education Department wants feedback on making more student-loan borrowers eligible for Public Service Loan Forgiveness.

PSLF forgives student debt for government and nonprofit workers after 10 years of qualifying payments, and under Biden, over 900,000 borrowers have been approved for relief through the program.

However, according to an announcement from the Education Department last week, the program has excluded early childhood educators since its inception in 2007 because many of them run small businesses, and their own or their employer's for-profit tax statuses make them ineligible for PSLF.

As a result, the Education Department issued a Request for Information on what it would entail to extend PSLF eligibility to early childhood educators. This could make 450,000 workers eligible for the program if they have federal student loans, according to data from the HHS's National Survey of Early Care and Education.

"Early childhood educators help young children learn, grow, and thrive. But they are often poorly compensated, and student debt is a problem," Under Secretary of Education James Kvaal said in a statement. "If these educators can access Public Service Loan Forgiveness, we can help our youngest children, their families, and their communities."

The public can submit comments to the Federal Register regarding information, research, and suggestions on including for-profit early childhood educators in PSLF here. The public comment period ends on July 22.

According to background information from the Education Department, this information request will not be used as part of the formal rulemaking process related to for-profit workers and PSLF eligibility; rather, it'll be used to help the department develop non-rulemaking approaches related to this issue.

Expanding student-loan forgiveness eligibility to these workers could be significant, particularly because early childhood educators are among the lowest-paid jobs in the US, largely made up of women. According to Berkeley's Center for the Study of Child Care Employment, those working full-time with toddlers and infants are paid up to $8,375 less a year than those who work with preschoolers. Immigrants and women of color are disproportionately impacted by this disparity.

This follows work the Education Department has already done to reform PSLF. Through its one-time account adjustments, the department is bringing borrowers' payments through PSLF and income-driven repayment plans up to date, getting them closer to the loan forgiveness promised through the programs.

• The incident may have resulted from remarks about Israel's war in Gaza, according to a report.

A senior Moelis banker who appeared to punch a woman at a Brooklyn Pride event earlier this month has left the company, according to a Bloomberg report.

The banker, Jonathan Kaye, was in charge of the investment bank's global business services franchise. A Moelis spokesperson confirmed with BI that he resigned from the company. As of Monday, his profile is no longer available on the Moelis website.

Kaye did not immediately reply to a request for comment from BI.

The banker was initially placed on leave shortly after a video showing the incident on June 8 went viral on social media.

The video included text that read: "This guy punched me in the face today and broke my nose and busted up my friends arm."

A Moelis spokesperson told BI at the time that it was conducting an investigation. In the video, a woman appears to fall down after being punched by a man, who the video's uploader identified as Kaye. The man can be heard in the video walking away with a stain on the back of his blazer, saying, "she fucking threw shit all over me."

The punch may have come after Kaye, who is Jewish, told someone at the event holding a Palestinian flag that they were "on the wrong side," and then had liquid poured on him by four individuals, the Financial Times reported. Kaye apparently fell to the ground and hurt his knee during the incident, the report said.

A police report filed after the incident stated that the woman who was punched lost consciousness when she fell and had a broken nose, lacerations, and a black eye, according to Bloomberg.

• Here's an update on their on their relationship. 

Micah Lussier and Kaz Bishop may have rekindled their relationship in the "Perfect Match" season two finale, but they are no longer dating.

Micah is on her second attempt at a reality TV romance after trying and failing to find a husband on Netflix's most popular reality show, "Love Is Blind."

She appears in the latest season of "Perfect Match," a Netflix crossover series in which fan favorites from other shows compete and date to find their partner.

In episode two, Micah pairs up with "Dated & Related" alum Kaz Bishop, and the pair wins two couples' challenges in the season.

But their relationship is constantly tested in the second half of the series. First, Kaz is sent on a date with Holly Scarfone, who previously starred in "Too Hot To Handle" season three.

When Kaz returns, he struggles to decide who to pick between Holly and Micah. Micah gets angry about this situation and calls Kaz a liar. They make up in episode seven and match together again.

However, in the following episodes, Micah and Kaz are caught in more fights when he chats with other women.

In episode nine, the pair have a screaming match. Micah is angry with Kaz this time for talking to a third new contestant, Christine Obanor, and kissing Holly in a game. Kaz is annoyed that Micah told other contestants that they are the weakest couple.

They finally break up and Kaz matches up with Christine, and Micah pairs up with Izzy Zapata.

In the following episode, Kaz has second thoughts and speaks to Micah about rebuilding their relationship. Micah doesn't immediately give in but eventually decides to match with Kaz.

At the end of the season, they are still coupled up.

On Monday, Netflix shared an update with the cast. In the clip, Kaz said his relationship with Micah is "nonexistent," and she hates him, while Micah described the relationship as a short-lived "rollercoaster."

Both parties seem to have moved on from the relationship.

Kaz told Entertainment Tonight in June that he's in a relationship with another person, though he did not name them.

Meanwhile, Micah has posted several TikTok videos about going on dates with other people.

"Perfect Match" season two is available on Netflix.

• Harry Jowsey and Jessica Vestal are one of the most popular couples in "Perfect Match" season two.
• Fans previously speculated that the pair dated in 2023.
• Here's what we know about their relationship on the show and whether they are still together.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for "Perfect Match" season two.

Netflix reality star Harry Jowsey and "Love Is Blind" fan-favorite cast member Jessica Vestal broke up in the "Perfect Match" season two finale.

In season two, stars from "Squid Game: The Challenge," "Love Is Blind" and other shows date each other to find their perfect match.

The series gives Netflix the opportunity to give fan-favorite reality contestants more screen time while promoting their lesser-known shows like as "The Trust: A Game of Greed" and "Dated & Related."

In season two, Harry, who has a reputation for being a player, arrives in the house and says he is ready to settle down in a serious relationship.

His costars are doubtful, but he perseveres, and in episode three, he couples up with Jessica, who starred in the latest season of "Love Is Blind."

The pair fight in episodes three and five when Jessica questions Harry's honesty after she hears negative comments from other contestants. But Jessica sticks by Harry.

Their relationship gets messy in episode eight, when the male contestants go on a trip away from their partners and meet a group of female contestants.

Harry is caught in a cheating scandal after Melinda Berry accuses him of kissing her off-camera. Harry denies the kisses, but Holly Scarfone says she saw it.

When all the contestants get back to the house, Melinda tells Jessica, and Jessica is unsure who to believe. In the season finale, Jessica decides not to rematch that night, meaning both contestants have to leave the competition.

According to a post-credit scene in the finale, the pair got back together a month after filming, but they have since broken up.

Both stars told Entertainment Tonight in June that they are single now.

Even before the season finale, there were clues they were no longer dating. Here's why.

Jessica and Harry were photographed together in Mexico last year

Before "Perfect Match" aired fans were already speculating whether Harry and Jessica were dating.

In March, TMZ and PageSix published pictures of Harry and Jessica kissing that they claim were taken in June 2023 in Tulum, Mexico.

However, these photographs may have been taken while the cast was filming "Perfect Match" season two since the series was filmed in Tulum.

Harry confirmed on the latest episode of his podcast, "Boyfriend Material with Harry Jowsey," that the series was filmed in the summer of 2023.

Jessica implied she was single in March.

In March of this year, Jessica seemed to push back on the idea that she was dating someone.

She posted a TikTok, captioning it: "Trust, y'all will know when someone has wifed me up. Let's focus on the ones who actually might be."

It isn't as definitive as "I'm not in a relationship," but certainly points to an ongoing relationship with Harry being unlikely.

In February, Jessica also spoke about another possible non-Harry romance.

She said on the "Viall Files" podcast that she was attracted to a costar from "Love Is Blind" season six.

"I had another strong connection there," Jessica said. "I can't say any names because I'm still trying to sort some things out."

Harry said he broke up with a secret girlfriend last year.

In the fall of 2023, Harry partnered up with professional dancer Rylee Arnold to compete in "Dancing With The Stars" season 32.

However, fans began speculating that the dancing partners were dating after seeing their chemistry and reading reports that they spent Thanksgiving together.

Harry shut down the rumors at the time, telling Business Insider in November: "I try and ignore it all because I just want to focus on the dancing. If I get distracted with dating stuff and all that stuff, then I'm probably not going to be a good dancer."

In April, Harry said on his podcast, "Boyfriend Material with Harry Jowsey," that he was actually in a secret relationship during the filming of "Dancing With the Stars."

"All those edits kind of brought me and my girlfriend at the time apart," Harry said, referring to TikTok videos that elevated the dating rumors about him and Rylee.

"I was madly in love with this girl," Harry said. "It was probably just infatuation, but I thought it was love. Obviously, it ended up ending, and it fizzled out because it's so difficult to see your boyfriend or girlfriend on 'Dancing with the Stars' being that close with someone else."

Harry credited the secret girlfriend for keeping him steady during his sudden rise in fame until they eventually broke up.

Jessica calls Harry a red flag in TikTok videos

Throughout "Perfect Match," Jessica's costars warned her of Harry's poor dating history. However, Jessica ignores them and continues to date him.

After the first episodes of "Perfect Match" aired on June 7, Jessica also began calling Harry a "red flag" on TikTok which seems to imply that they are no longer dating.

On Monday, she posted a video with the caption: "When the entire house is telling you that your match is the world's largest red flag but you gotta see it through."

On Sunday, she appeared in another video shared by her "Perfect Match" costar, Micah Lussier, about their partners on the show.

"When everyone warned you about your man, but you're a lover girl at heart, so you're gonna stick beside him against your better judgment," Micah captioned the post.

Harry meanwhile commented on his relationship with Jessica after the show aired on the latest episode of his podcast.

However, he had nothing but good things to say about her and even said she was "the love of my life."

"I thought that Jess was the most incredible most beautiful woman that I've ever seen in my life," he said.

Harry and Jessica are not following each other on Instagram

The biggest clue that they're not together is that Harry and Jessica don't follow each other on Instagram.

Harry has shared videos and pictures of their time together on the show, but Business Insider has checked and he doesn't follow Jessica. In fact, Harry only follows some of his male costars from the show.

Jessica follows most of her male and female costars but not Harry.

This likely means they're no longer on good terms.

• Vogue World 2024 took place in Paris, France, on Sunday.
• The elaborate fashion show looked back at the past 100 years of fashion through the lens of sports.
• Athletes joined models on the runway, and A-list singers performed. 

The 2024 Paris Olympics don't start for another month, but the iconic games had an unofficial, fashionable start over the weekend.

On Sunday, Vogue World took place at the Place Vendôme in Paris on a cobblestone courtyard in the French square. The annual event is an elevated fashion show with live performers, and it's typically styled to reflect the location and time it takes place, much like the Met Gala.

With Paris hosting the Olympics in July, Vogue's show looked at the past 100 years of fashion in the context of sports. As Vogue reported, it focused on decades, honoring the fashion of each era through a different sport, such as cycling in the 1920s or tennis in the 2000s.

To match the theme, the 2024 show featured nearly 200 athletes and showstopping appearances from models and celebrities.

Take a look at the most iconic moments from Vogue World 2024.

To open the show, Vogue celebrated the seamstresses and tailors by having them walk the runway. The craftsmen from fashion houses like Armani, Dior, and Chanel had front-row seats for the show.

Kendall Jenner and Gigi Hadid rode on horseback down the runway in matching Hermès outfits.

Anok Yai walked the unconventional runway in a red, white, and blue dress from Alaïa that nodded to the French flag. Pieter Mulier reimagined the original Alaïa dress from 1989.

Jeremy Pope danced down the runway with a group of performers behind him. He wore a Thom Browne tuxedo.

Sabrina Carpenter paid homage to 1940s swimwear in a red-and-white striped look from Jacquemus. Performers waved blue ribbons around her that looked like water.

As dancers in tennis gear performed behind her, Serena Williams strutted down the runway in an Ib Kamara for Off-White dress, honoring both tennis and the late Virgil Abloh.

Venus Williams also appeared on the Vogue World stage in a dress designed by Marine Serre out of recycled tennis bags.

The Noir Kei Ninomiya dress Katy Perry wore during the show was arguably the most daring look at the event. The black gown was covered entirely in floral-shaped cutouts.

The show included multiple performances from athletes and dancers, including professional rhythmic gymnasts who frolicked down the runway.

After singing at the 2023 event, FKA Twigs returned to the Vogue World stage in an Alexandre Vauthier dress for the 1920s section of the show.

NBA player Victor Wembanyama returned to his home country to walk the runway in a white suit.

NFL player Joe Burrow also took to the Vogue stage, making his runway debut in a black suit from Peter Do that he wore with no shirt.

French drag queen Keiona Revlon performed during the show in a Balenciaga suit.

Ciara not only made a surprise appearance in a custom Givenchy dress and cape, but she also stopped to perform with dancers as she made her way down the runway.

And Bad Bunny sang three songs toward the end of the show in a Pressiat suit.

• Stevan Ditter and Alara Taneri are one of the most consistent couples in "Perfect Match" season two.
• They've quickly become a fan favorite due to their loyalty to each other.
• Here's what we know about their relationship on the show and whether they are still together.

Warning: Spoilers ahead for "Perfect Match" season two.

Stevan Ditter and Alara Taneri may be the strongest couple in "Perfect Match" season two, but they broke up after the show ended.

The pair originally appeared in two separate Netflix series, "Too Hot To Handle" and "Dated & Related."

"Perfect Match" series draws together contestants from across Netflix's reality show slate and gives cast members a second chance at love (or boosting their fame). Stevan and Alara seemed to be more focused on the love part.

The couple met for the first time when they are paired on a date in episode three. At the time, Stevan was matched with another contestant, Xanthi Perdikomatis, but he immediately gelled with Alara and chose to match with her in the next coupling session.

After that, the pair became totally focused on each other, even when sent on dates with other contestants. They made it to the season two final together but were not chosen as the winning couple.

Unfortunately, their relationship did not last.

On Monday, Netflix shared a clip with the season two cast where Stevan and Alara said they broke up after going on holiday together.

Alara said Stevan ghosted her, while Stevan said it was too complicated to maintain their relationship.

"I honestly just didn't have time to carry on a relationship, let alone one that was overseas," Stevan said.

Here's what we know about their relationship.

Stevan doesn't follow Alara on Instagram.

The biggest clue that Stevan and Alara are no longer seeing each other is who they're following on Instagram.

Alara follows Stevan, but Stevan does not follow her back even though he does follow some of his other "Perfect Match" costars.

"Perfect Match" contestant Harry Jowsey said on the latest episode of his podcast released on June 11, "Boyfriend Material with Harry Jowsey," that Stevan is currently dating someone.

Harry mentioned the girlfriend while apologizing for lying that Stevan had sex with Holly Scarfone while filming "Perfect Match" season two.

"He's also happily in a relationship, so I'm deeply sorry to his girlfriend for saying that," Harry said.

In June, Stevan told Entertainment Tonight he was in a relationship with someone outside the reality TV show universe.

Alara lives with another "Perfect Match" contestant in LA.

Initially, Stevan and Alara lived far from one another: she in London and he in Los Angeles.

On June 2, "Perfect Match" season two star Micah Lussier said in a TikTok video that she had moved to LA and was living temporarily with Alara.

It's unclear when Alara moved to LA or into the apartment with Micah. But it seems she is more focused on her friendships than dating.
