SpaceX is negotiating with EchoStar to acquire Boost Mobile or gain access to its network in an effort to become the fourth U.S. wireless carrier, according to The Washington Post. Boost Mobile sells low-cost plans by leasing AT&T’s and T-Mobile’s networks without owning any towers. The U.S. mobile telecommunications market is valued at $235 billion, and EchoStar has already sold a large portion of its spectrum to SpaceX for $17 billion. AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile refuse to open their networks to SpaceX and may also withhold approval for the transfer of Boost’s network contracts in the event of an acquisition.
