Private astronauts return from pole-to-pole orbit
Four private astronauts have completed a groundbreaking SpaceX mission, returning to Earth after orbiting from pole to pole and conducting experiments on human health in space.
The U.S. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has granted SpaceX regulatory approval to significantly increase the number of Starship rocket launches from its Texas facility, marking a major step forward in the company's efforts to develop its next-generation Mars rocket.
The decision, announced Tuesday, allows Elon Musk’s company to raise its annual launch rate from five to 25 Starship missions from the Starbase site in Boca Chica, Texas. The FAA’s approval also covers booster landings in the Gulf of Mexico and other international waters, even accounting for the environmental impact of potential rocket failures or explosions.
The ruling concludes a multi-year environmental review by the FAA, which determined that the expanded operations would not result in significant harm to the surrounding habitat, coastline, or public safety.
Starship, designed to be fully reusable, is central to SpaceX’s ambitions for long-range space travel, including future crew and cargo missions to the Moon and Mars. The expanded launch allowance will provide the company with a greater testing cadence as it continues development and begins commercial missions under contracts with NASA and other partners.
The FAA’s approval is a critical regulatory milestone for SpaceX as it accelerates Starship development amid growing demand for large-scale orbital transportation and deep-space infrastructure.
