## SpaceX in talks with Boost Mobile
SpaceX has held talks with Boost Mobile's parent company, EchoStar, in recent months about launching its own wireless service through the existing network.
## Two paths to a deal
The deal could see SpaceX acquire Boost Mobile outright or gain access to its cell network, which is leased from AT&T and T-Mobile.
## Major carriers have already said no
AT&T, T-Mobile and Verizon have already turned down Elon Musk for access to their cell networks to launch a separate SpaceX service, according to The Washington Post.
## Key takeaway

SpaceX is in talks to buy Boost Mobile or access its cell network to launch its own wireless service, according to The Washington Post.
