Reports of FAA green lighting launch license<\/h2>\n

This is it, the moment we\u2019ve all been waiting for. According to two reports, SpaceX\u2019s Starship could be getting a launch license from the FAA within two weeks. This is the final hurdle before SpaceX can legally launch its massive rocket from South Texas on its first orbital flight test.<\/p>\n

DutchSatellites, a Netherlands\u2019 National Space Museum worker who usually tweets about space history and the occasional insight into the industry, shared that FAA was in the final stages of finishing its launch license. They also claimed, \u201cSpaceX should have it in hand in under a fortnight.\u201d For you who don\u2019t know what that means, it means within two weeks, how everything comes full circle.<\/p>\n

This was corroborated by Christian Davenport, space reporter for The Washington Post (and don\u2019t forget the author of The Space Barons). Davenport stated, \u201cunless there\u2019s an unforeseen problem, SpaceX should have the launch license for the Starship debut launch by April 14 or thereabouts.\u201d That is two weeks from tomorrow for those about to switch to a calendar to do the math.<\/p>\n
