Donald Trump spent some quality time with Elon Musk's son X as the two boarded Marine Force One together.
The president was spotted walking side-by-side with the exuberant four-year-old on the White House's South Lawn on Friday.

The president took off as NASA's beleaguered mission to rescue two stranded astronauts finally launched, setting the stage for a happy ending to the nine-month-long saga.

The new team is scheduled to arrive at the station on late on Saturday. Once there, astronauts Sunita Williams and Butch Wilmore will finally be able to return to Earth at some point on or shortly after March 19.
