Elon Musk may dream of colonizing Mars, but his heart’s already conquered by Lil X’s infectious smile! Sources dish that the tech mogul swapped late-night coding sessions for bedtime stories, reading Lil X tales of interplanetary heroes under a glow-in-the-dark star ceiling. At a SpaceX event, Elon shocked attendees by letting Lil X “announce” a rocket test, the toddler’s squeaky voice echoing through mission control, melting even the toughest engineers.

Their bond is pure stardust, with Elon reportedly designing a custom spacesuit for Lil X’s fifth birthday, complete with a tiny Neuralink logo. “He’s my reason to keep pushing,” Musk confided to a colleague, a rare glimpse into his softer side. X users can’t get enough, flooding timelines with heart-eyes emojis and comments like, “Elon’s building a future for Lil X, one hug at a time!”
