Saudi, UAE investment could see SpaceX's value skyrocket to $140 billion.
SpaceX may receive investment from a unit of Saudi Arabia's investment fund as well as an Abu Dhabi-based company.
SpaceX has yet to comment on the report. It will be interesting to see how this story develops in the wider context of SpaceX's ties to the U.S. government.
