FAA Statement (Sept. 11, 2024)
SpaceX’s current license authorizing the Starship Flight 4 launch also allows for multiple flights of the same vehicle configuration and mission profile. SpaceX chose to modify both for its proposed Starship Flight 5 launch which triggered a more in-depth review. In addition, SpaceX submitted new information in mid-August detailing how the environmental impact of Flight 5 will cover a larger area than previously reviewed. This requires the FAA to consult with other agencies.
SpaceX must meet all safety, environmental and other licensing requirements prior to FAA launch authorization. A final license determination for Starship Flight 5 is not expected before late November 2024.The immediate headline is that the Starship launch is likely delayed until November at the earliest due to the FAA continually dragging it out.
The long term outlook however is much more dire.
SpaceX is being unfairly blocked by bad actors and detractors.
This IS a problem. This IS going to impact our return to the moon, journey to Mars, and overall competitiveness as a nation.
The first nation with a company (SpaceX) to make private, commercial spaceflight a thing, may I add.
I hope you share this video, SpaceX has put together a very compelling argument.
