_Well JC, I see it like this:_ There seems to be a 'type' of person who ends up in jobs like FAA and Building Inspectors: EFFETE SNOBS with ZERO CREATIVITY and ZERO FLEXIBILITY and ZERO ACTUAL ABILITY to BUILD ANYTHING. But they are GREAT at NIT-PICKING and QUOTING RULES and IGNORING THE SPIRIT of the rules they quote. If you do anything that is at all different from what they expect, they give a little _sniff_ and fail you and your ACTUAL WORK. So it is little wonder they stand in the way of progress. Their only POSSIBLE excuse for their NON-SENSE is that they are _covering their asses._
Thank you for doing these videos. I am really impressed with your accomplishments and videos! I take Starship/Boca Chica development seriously. I want to point out that this issue has nothing to do with any other SpaceX activities. Launches of F9 don't count. The issue is the development of the new space launch system, Starship. It is experimental and has only launched 4 times. So the FAA is saying that SpaceX added a new parameter in mid-August. That requires the FAA to examine what issues come up under the new launch situation. Catching a rocket is unprecedented, so new issues have to be considered. The FAA also has to work with the other federal and state agencies that weigh into the FAA's consideration of new issues. (I am also in favor of the FAA expanding their offices to deal with new space startups and new launches to cover the expanding space development field. This can help speed up the process.) Starbase is in the middle of two nature preserves and located on the delta of the Rio Grande. Personally, I want to see SpaceX develop a water deluge system that is proven safe and worthy to be reproduced anywhere. I think they really need an independent evaluation and that can only be done after another test flight. The test numbers that SpaceX posted are a bit strange. (I think the water deluge system is fine, personally.) I have also commented elsewhere on this video to point out that IFT-5 was not really ready in early August, because the tower is being modified for the catch. Great videos!!
This is a clear political revenge for elon musk for supporting Trump. This same biden says gm is leading in ev in usa😂😂😂. Whole world knows about tesla is leading usa. They want to keep busy Elon musk in another problem with faa rather than kamala.
@@mickgibson370 Boeing's commercial aerospace is their side gig now. Their real business is their military contracts. The FAA will never crack down on Boeing's commercial business to the point it actually hurts them.
The FAA has a regulatory role, however FAA appears to be stuffed with partisan proffessional bureaucrats who consider their role to choose however slow they want to be their business and noone elses ! This has been deliberately politicised ! The FAA has known since June that Spacex wanted a Launch 5 as soon as possible and FAA shud have prepared to be able to plan their approval timing better !
I have read many times how the FAA is political as it has a five-member board, there are three democrats and two republicans so there will never be a fair vote - either way. I don't know the answer but it's not this.
I strongly object to have an Aviation oriented regulation authority regulate space flight, they are simply not competent, and not delegated by the constitution to regulate space flight as enumerated by Article 1, section 8. Regulation of interstate COMMERCE. No interstate flights using space around the world exists. In fact Reagan signed executive order 12465 to explicitly prohibit the FAA from regulating space launches. Read it!
FAA overseeing space flight should be scrapped!....FAA stands for Federal Aviation Administration. Space flight is not aviation, FAA is not equipped or competent to oversee space flight. There should be a new dedicated federal agency formed to deal with US space launches and activity in and around Earth orbit. What we have now is an agency built to manage passenger airline system with millions of passengers trying to oversee a completely different mode of transportation they don't understand that utilizes technology they also don't understand. Who's risk to the public they do not understand.... A new agency would have to work in conjunction with FAA, but people who's skill set is managing passenger aviation should not be also regulating space flight. Especially in the world we will soon be in where there are thousands of space launches annually and tens or hundreds of thousands of satellites in Earth orbit.
There seems to be a direct correlation between the timing of the majority of Elon Musk's multiple new-found headaches and his openly endorsing a certain presidential candidate... 🤔🤔🤔 What I love most about Elon is the fact that he is relentless and it is for REASONS that are of critical concern to every human who still believe that they are breathing oxygen free-of-charge. I'm going to give this topic even more contemplation while enjoying a nice cold glass of drinking water that was not freely given. 😉😇🙏🏼🌠
"The beginning of political wisdom is the realization that despite everything you’ve always been taught, the government is not really on your side; indeed, it is out to get you." - Robert Higgs
I've worked for an agency for 27 years and regulatory compliance cost almost 40% of my hours as a manager let alone my crew and facility needs for the day. These regulators are in it for the $10K per day fines they can abstract from deep pockets.
worked for an agency for 27 years and didn't know how to spell extract? gee i hope that didn't screw up some unlucky joe back in the past.. just saying
@@johng4093 i mean, in my case, he provided 2 informations that were concerning if put together, so, it got me curious at the least, if anything it's just empathy, imagine if we or our family member got screwed up by an important public service matter just because the personnel in charge were terrible at some basic things like vocabulary or spelling,
SCOTUS has changed what these agencies can now change without the OK from legislative body......as a pilot, FAA stick to planes, but leave rockets alone....
I’m 75 raised in Rhode Island my first vote was in a primary I became a republican 1 of 117 in a town of approximately 6,000. I recall men loosing their jobs in the logging industry because of some Owl. I don’t think any person should loose their job over an issue like that. I want clean air and water but not at the expense of mankind’s own ability to earn a living. Be a good steward but the rule cannot be do NO harm. At 75 I feel blessed to watch videos everyday about activities at SpaceX it’s exciting to watch the irritative process used in the development of rockets. Elon has built a space based business to fund the development of starship. Elon Musk is a brilliant man and is strong and resolute.
The only bad choice Space X has made is trying to follow the rules instead of just greasing some palms. Where I grew up, there's a road bridge that's been out since I was 5 (I'm 60+ now). The County has tried to replace it many time. But couldn't because of the 3-letter units. One time was some bat nesting nearby that would be disturbed. The next time it was some rare owl spotted in the area. Then it was some kind of plant thing. Then there was some kind of small creatures living in the water under the bridge. Now I think the County has just quit trying.
Elon is honest and following the millions of regulations set out by bureaucrats. Maybe they're worried about losing their jobs when President Trump appoints him and others to cut all the waste out of DC.
You are talking about imitation of Boeing. Billions, Bimbos, and Bowls of Coke are the Taxpayer Funded Fast Track to Government Approval. Of course, SpaceX becomes Boeing II that way.
If the only change you propose is defunding a governmental agency, how do you think anything will improve? The agencies have to be reformed to the core. Only once they're properly structured and made efficient for the current+future needs can one talk about the money required to sustain its activity.
Musk's choice to endorse Trump, is his own idiocy! I don't believe that has anything to do with it. This is more like getting pulled over for speeding and then arguing with the cop, that it's his fault for enforcing a law you don't like!! That's Musk!! Just follow the laws like everyone else in the business and STFU!!
@@professorg8383yes, I suppose it's just coincidence that Trump gets in trouble with the law while running for president, and also someone tries to kill him after various Democrats called him a fascist and just like Hilter, just a coincidence, I'm sure, and then when Elon supports Trump, he gets in trouble with the law too, it's like the government is trying to outlaw political opposition!
The use of drinking water reduce corrosion to the metal of the launch pad and tower. The use of local fresh untreated water or sea water would coat the pad with high concentrations of minerals and salt. This use of purified drinking water leads to enormous cost savings and quicker turn around of the launch system!
Has any citizen ever voted for creating any of those 3 Letter agencies? The only thing I know is, they burn thru Billions of Tax $$$ with nothing to show. Waist wherever you look. IMO all of them need to be demolished. As a Ham operator, my stick in the side is the FCC constantly trying to snip more and more frequencies away. Who made them the GODS of frequencies? Anyways, JC, spot on as always.
Musk is hated for arguing against the book-burning, fascist narrative that the First Amendment needs to go! And its not like X is at the same level of openness as Telegram or Rumble! But the blob demands total obedience! quasi obedience is disobedience!
DEI a policy in which nobody wins and organizations like Space-X are forced to pick less than the best people for the job. More Biden admin BS to destroy a Trump supporter and ruin our country, plain and simple evil political BS!
Doing things with government is always inefficient because there's too much bureaucracy and gov employees aren't used to having to produce things on a deadline.
I’m in full agreement with you. Unions are the same way as city workers/construction workers. My peeve with unions are of the mind set, they are more politicians then labor protection.
Put some security cameras on the parking lots at every FAA office and I guarantee there won’t be a single car in the lot a minute after 5PM each workday and after 3:30 PM on Fridays.
how much damage can ten seconds of flight cause? This is not a purview of an organization not dealing with space flight. Congress makes the laws, not bureaucrats. Remember executive order 12465 by Reagan.
I don't work for the FAA, but I am an insider to the aviation industry and I can tell you workers at the FAA generally can work from home, don't want the work finished "too fast", can do other things at home while working like walking the dog, etc. The FAA is not run like a business like SpaceX, it is BIG Government Bureaucratic Slug paid for by you and me. SpaceX could do the FAA agency work twice as fast and for half the price, it's as simple as that.
you have to do reviews because it costs the taxpayers billions to clean up after space x made it unliveable NO that has never been done by any for profit company ever anywhere in the US its called SUPER FUND SITES!!!
As someone who has worked for both US corporations and US government agencies I can tell you first hand the cultures are quite different. While time savings, cost savings and efficiency is promoted in corporations, it is not in the government. Pay raise, time off, benefits packages and leave work early are the hallmarks of government employment.
Thanks for shedding light on this @jcristina! IMO if we (the public) keep the "heat" on these meddling government bureaucrats (and associated three letter agencies) WE will be doing our part in eliminating these unnecessary man-made barriers to space. People - if you want to see Mars (or even Lunar) colonies in your lifetime, call/email your elected reps and ask them to reign in these clowns.
FFA, it's drinking water, what the hecky-heck problem do you have with drinking water. And, if it's not the water, then please tell all of us what it is you have a problem with. We pay your wages, at least you could tell us what you have a problem with and how your actions on this are saving us. Thank you from Wyoming
As a citizen looking at our government it is blatantly obvious how inefficient our government is on every level. So much waste. Lack of leadership. No solutions. Every division of government needs streamlined and reconfigured as a business.
Elon said it correctly the first time that *the* *FAA* *is* *slow* *to* *change/adapt* to the current *industry-led* *space* *program* (away from the old, less effective, gov't-led program).
J, you’re not getting it! As you asked: Those five guys standing around… lets call it 1) Safety, 2) Supervisor, 3) Environmentalist, 4) Union Rep, 5) Runner/Gopher/Coffee runner. What else do you want to know. This is GOv employment…. Nowadays there might be a DEI guy assigned as well.
Boy, how quickly FAA came back with lame excuses. They are totally snowflaking. So typical ….SpaceX is not making changes. It’s called improvement from previous lessons learned. my opinion, FAA should do their real job before come back with long ass excuses. That must’ve taken this guy a long time to write his excuses. Maybe that’s all he did all day yesterday. lol Thanks for sharing a video.
I was absolutely blown away when I found out that Space X has a launch base here in the UK but it also is governed by the FAA! So even here they would need their approval to launch anything. I believe that used to be called racketeering but I could be wrong 😢
Blue origin launches are literally vertically going up 60+ miles and going down in the same area. Not at all equivalent to Spacex. Also, SpaceX is not ignoring the environment, they have already DONE the following environmental assessments: 1. Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy Environmental Assessment (original plan for Boca Chica) 2. Starship tests Environmental Assessment (initial starhopper/starship test flights/landings) 3. Integrated Super heavy and Starship launches (IFT1 to 4) 4. Starship landings in Pacific/Indian ocean (IFT 1 to 4) SpaceX point is that the small changes they requested will not cause any significant change to the results of all the environmental assessments and fixes previously done. Literally they are asking the FAA/environmental please inform them what else will cause safety and environmental issues so they can fix it since the FAA and environmental agencies witnessed directly all events and results in person. Literally FAA and environmental can't realistically find much counter arguments but needed to do 60 days additional environmental review because that's the process. The call for additional reviews is at the discretion of the FAA btw.
HEY BUDDY As of August 29, 2024, Blue Origin has successfully completed 26 missions with its New Shepard program12. This includes eight human spaceflights2. This is 26 TOTAL for BO, not this year. SpaceX will have over 100 launches to LEO this year alone
You asked if we would go to Mars. As a member of the Viking team, the people who built the 3 flight space craft, 2 were launched in 1975 the first arrived on July 20 1976 landing on Chryse Planitia , 22.27 North, 312.05 East. My primary job was to evaluate the radar reflectivity of the candidate landing sites by simulating the approach under the radar guidance of the radar altimeter and the landing doppler radar, to touch down with a descent velocity of 8 feet / sec. for more than four years we measured the environment about those landing areas. From sight of the landers on the laboratory, I am familiar what the landed Vikings looks like. Yes, I would try to be among the first Mars colonist, by actually flying and landing the manned space craft. (I am a certificated commercial pilot and flight instructor) Landing next to one Viking is not too difficult, by reference to the known size and orientation. Using a similator the landings can be practiced, using the displayed cues from the control system. Very similar to a normal instrument approach under ILS guidance. For a long time now we know the Martian environment, winds, temperature, pressure, visibility with the sun behind and the ground conditions. I will volunteer to be a crew member of the first lander. The conditions for life on Mars are very favorable, much better than on the moon, Ouside a 1/3 pressure suit with little heating, 18% oxygen and 15% nitrogen gas mixture is close to optimal, given the 1/3 gravity. The joint flexibility of the arms and knees is more than adequate. Inside the shelter the living quarters can be very confortable. The primary problem are the sand storms, not the cosmic radiatiation. Plenty of frozen water and all the minerals for plant life are there: K, N, S, P.
Remember Blue Origin and ULA filed complaints to limit SpaceX launch cadence at Cape Canaveral? Now these permission delays, and all the negatives toward SpaceX? These highlight a fact that SpaceX had broken the barrier (big time) of launch capabilities with reusable rockets=cheaper launch with 100+ launches per year and payload potential 200-tonnes compared to the current 10 from other providers. The present facilities at the Cape and regulatory management just couldn't handle and haven't catch up to the new capabilities. Gov'ts in general are always the slowest and most inefficient at doing things. Like centuries ago when we were paddling along the coast on small boats. Why do we need bigger boats, and what's the need of crossing the oceans? Because of the bigger boats crossing the oceans, we now have technologies: commercial aeroplanes, advanced computers and technologies, etc. Crossing the oceans on Earth was one step. As civilization, we are on the cusp of the next step: Space. Travelling vast distance and building/sustaining/living-in infrastructures in space and beyond. The cape needs to be upgraded. The rules need to be updated. The FAA (staff and knowledge) needs to be updated or separate independent FAA-like agency that is more efficient and knowledgeable.
You know, the worst traffic jam I ever experienced was on i-10 near Houston, TX. 8 lanes in a 65mph zone at a crawl. When I got to the problem, I found it was because of rubberneckers (including me). Ther was a work crew on the side of the road, and all 6 were actually WORKING. Haven't seen anything like it since.
God, I can't wait for Elon to get into the office of DOGE. Maybe we can get Balaji Srinivasan into the FDA this time too, as he recently suggested that now might finally be the time where they will be able to do anything about these monstrous government agencies. AFUERA!
As the son of a ww2 ace, carrier test pilot, the father of Navy pilot & Major airlines Captain, I had over 260 carrier landings in at the time the newest Navy fighter! I love the industry but my experience dealing hierarchy was amazinging! The cover ups and the rewriting of incidents that I personally experienced where enough to send me another way on my career! The CYA attitude has made me lifetime critical government over view agencies! I hope I’m wrong but what I see happening delaying space x is. Horrible? Did they delay the Boeing star liner?
No comments yet on the changes to Starlink? Price changes, Roam now allows in-motion use. The one thing I can't seem to find an answer to is how much additional data costs on the Roam 50 plan.
We the people need to insist that the scope of operations of almost every government 'regulatory' agency is either hugely reduced, or eliminated altogether. If a particular agency is politically malleable like this department of the FAA regularly demonstrates, it needs to go! Government is the antithesis to national progress,
Correction for 12:30 . Blue origin launched 26 times (25 successed) SUBORBITAL rocket New Sheppard since 2015. In 2024 they launched TWICE. Firefly Alfa also launched twice in 2024. (5 total, with 1 failure, two partial success, two times successful). SpaceX in 2023 launched 98 times. In 2024 as for September it launched already 92 times.
I can see why the FAA is concerned about flight 5 becaise of the attempt to catch the booster, but if it fails it is not likely to be any bigger explosion than some of their previious ones when there weren't as many retention ponds and walls as there is now and the explosions were really big because the ships had an almost full load on board. Don't see why they are delaying for so long unless there are personal reasons from the higher ups. "Don't cuss us out if you know what's good for you."
As a retired hazwoper that was based in San jose and just a few miles from Tesla Elon knows full well environmental regulations. Ca has maybe the most strict set of rules regarding the environment.we spent a month scrubbing rock in a stream from a gas tanker roll over to find out that the contamination was worse above the spill area.so I call BS why wasn't Elon called on contamination on the 4 previous flights .
The FAA and the EPA are different agencies. The FAA does not enforce EPA's laws. But they are required to withhold issuing a launch license if the applicant has not completed the EPS requirements! SpaceX has not done that because Musk does not like the EPA regulations. The FAA got hammered for issuing launch licenses, assuming SpaceX was in EPA compliance, when in fact they were not. But the only recourse the EPA has is to issue fines. they have no authority to ensure compliance. Musk could care less about fines! The EPA doesn't issue launch licenses. So musk can just write a check and thumb his nose at the EPA. This law was written largely because of Musk disregarding EPA regulations. This is a lot like the DMV suspending a drivers license for driving a vehicle not in EPA compliance. Musk has tried to circumvent the system because all the EPA can do is issue fines. Musk just pays them.
You Won't Believe This! The FAA's Director, Office of Operational Safety, Dan Murray is blaming Elon Musk's SpaceX for the massive 2 month delay in launching the next Starship IFT-5. Today we review the facts!
Q: Is the 2 month delay SpaceX's fault?
Q: What do you think should be done with the GOV?
Q: What do you think should be done with the FAA?
Q: What role should the US Fish & Wildlife Agency play?

That requires the FAA to examine what issues come up under the new launch situation. Catching a rocket is unprecedented, so new issues have to be considered. The FAA also has to work with the other federal and state agencies that weigh into the FAA's consideration of new issues. (I am also in favor of the FAA expanding their offices to deal with new space startups and new launches to cover the expanding space development field. This can help speed up the process.)
Starbase is in the middle of two nature preserves and located on the delta of the Rio Grande. Personally, I want to see SpaceX develop a water deluge system that is proven safe and worthy to be reproduced anywhere. I think they really need an independent evaluation and that can only be done after another test flight. The test numbers that SpaceX posted are a bit strange. (I think the water deluge system is fine, personally.)
I have also commented elsewhere on this video to point out that IFT-5 was not really ready in early August, because the tower is being modified for the catch. Great videos!!
This is a clear political revenge for elon musk for supporting Trump. This same biden says gm is leading in ev in usa😂😂😂. Whole world knows about tesla is leading usa. They want to keep busy Elon musk in another problem with faa rather than kamala.
Once a fool always a fool....just opnion...but no matter what this person say s SPACE X is America's only best run company...wake up clowns
EVERY flight that SpaceX does is a "modification" from the last. That's what "next Iteration" means!!
To hear that #FAACLOWN use the words "government" and "efficiency" in the same sentence is laughable.
110%
And they don't want do anything to Boeing!
@@mickgibson370 Boeing's commercial aerospace is their side gig now. Their real business is their military contracts. The FAA will never crack down on Boeing's commercial business to the point it actually hurts them.
@@mattpobursky850 Three of my in-laws work there! They died thinking that it place they would it work until 2010!
Remember, the FAA is now run in full compliance to the mandates of the DEI of the Biden / Harris administration.
The FAA has a regulatory role, however FAA appears to be stuffed with partisan proffessional bureaucrats who consider their role to choose however slow they want to be their business and noone elses ! This has been deliberately politicised ! The FAA has known since June that Spacex wanted a Launch 5 as soon as possible and FAA shud have prepared to be able to plan their approval timing better !
I have read many times how the FAA is political as it has a five-member board, there are three democrats and two republicans so there will never be a fair vote - either way. I don't know the answer but it's not this.
I strongly object to have an Aviation oriented regulation authority regulate space flight, they are simply not competent, and not delegated by the constitution to regulate space flight as enumerated by Article 1, section 8. Regulation of interstate COMMERCE.
No interstate flights using space around the world exists. In fact Reagan signed executive order 12465 to explicitly prohibit the FAA from regulating space launches. Read it!
Bull 💩 bureaucracy at its worst in my opinion!
FAA should be scrapped. Completely
🇺🇸
FAA overseeing space flight should be scrapped!....FAA stands for Federal Aviation Administration. Space flight is not aviation, FAA is not equipped or competent to oversee space flight. There should be a new dedicated federal agency formed to deal with US space launches and activity in and around Earth orbit. What we have now is an agency built to manage passenger airline system with millions of passengers trying to oversee a completely different mode of transportation they don't understand that utilizes technology they also don't understand. Who's risk to the public they do not understand....
A new agency would have to work in conjunction with FAA, but people who's skill set is managing passenger aviation should not be also regulating space flight. Especially in the world we will soon be in where there are thousands of space launches annually and tens or hundreds of thousands of satellites in Earth orbit.
The FFA does a crap job regulating the airlines/airport/small aircraft. They should not be in charge of space.
@jcristina wait, I hope DT will be elected then EM will be auditing all the government offices, especially FAA.
Agreed, just a pack of over paid school teachers who cannot get a job Teaching.

The adminstrative state has been out of control for a very long time.
It is one of the main reasons society has become such a mess - we have ceded our rights to bureaucrats.
Since the adoption of the US of A when the constitution replaced the Articles of Confederation, giving birth to a monster that is now eating us alive.
There seems to be a direct correlation between the timing of the majority of Elon Musk's multiple new-found headaches and his openly endorsing a certain presidential candidate... 🤔🤔🤔 What I love most about Elon is the fact that he is relentless and it is for REASONS that are of critical concern to every human who still believe that they are breathing oxygen free-of-charge. I'm going to give this topic even more contemplation while enjoying a nice cold glass of drinking water that was not freely given. 😉😇🙏🏼🌠
the government is out of control.

May God bless SpaceX and guides SpaceX team to achieve success abundantly. Amen ❤😊🎉
I've worked for an agency for 27 years and regulatory compliance cost almost 40% of my hours as a manager let alone my crew and facility needs for the day. These regulators are in it for the $10K per day fines they can abstract from deep pockets.

I’m 75 raised in Rhode Island my first vote was in a primary I became a republican 1 of 117 in a town of approximately 6,000. I recall men loosing their jobs in the logging industry because of some Owl. I don’t think any person should loose their job over an issue like that. I want clean air and water but not at the expense of mankind’s own ability to earn a living. Be a good steward but the rule cannot be do NO harm. At 75 I feel blessed to watch videos everyday about activities at SpaceX it’s exciting to watch the irritative process used in the development of rockets. Elon has built a space based business to fund the development of starship. Elon Musk is a brilliant man and is strong and resolute.

The only bad choice Space X has made is trying to follow the rules instead of just greasing some palms. Where I grew up, there's a road bridge that's been out since I was 5 (I'm 60+ now). The County has tried to replace it many time. But couldn't because of the 3-letter units. One time was some bat nesting nearby that would be disturbed. The next time it was some rare owl spotted in the area. Then it was some kind of plant thing. Then there was some kind of small creatures living in the water under the bridge. Now I think the County has just quit trying.
@user-ev1ub5es5m but typical when the feds interfere.
Elon is honest and following the millions of regulations set out by bureaucrats. Maybe they're worried about losing their jobs when President Trump appoints him and others to cut all the waste out of DC.
You are talking about imitation of Boeing. Billions, Bimbos, and Bowls of Coke are the Taxpayer Funded Fast Track to Government Approval. Of course, SpaceX becomes Boeing II that way.
When the local govt. starts to ignore the feds, we will be starting to take back our lives, our fortunes, our rights.
I'm positive that govt bureaucracy suppresses project completion by over 85% of what could normally be accomplished.
The process is the punishment.
You’re absolutely correct about the government’s approach to work; INEFFICIENT & WASTEFUL…I was there for 20 years, I should know…
Defund the FAA
yes
#defundFAA
If the only change you propose is defunding a governmental agency, how do you think anything will improve? The agencies have to be reformed to the core. Only once they're properly structured and made efficient for the current+future needs can one talk about the money required to sustain its activity.
Elon musk for head of Government Efficiency Commission 😊
The choice FAA is talking about that got Starship grounded was Musk's choice to endorse Trump.
Musk's choice to endorse Trump, is his own idiocy! I don't believe that has anything to do with it.
This is more like getting pulled over for speeding and then arguing with the cop, that it's his fault for enforcing a law you don't like!! That's Musk!!
Just follow the laws like everyone else in the business and STFU!!
if trump wins , I'm sure Elon would paid to have the right to personally fire the FAA's Director.
@@professorg8383yes, I suppose it's just coincidence that Trump gets in trouble with the law while running for president, and also someone tries to kill him after various Democrats called him a fascist and just like Hilter, just a coincidence, I'm sure, and then when Elon supports Trump, he gets in trouble with the law too, it's like the government is trying to outlaw political opposition!

The use of drinking water reduce corrosion to the metal of the launch pad and tower. The use of local fresh untreated water or sea water would coat the pad with high concentrations of minerals and salt. This use of purified drinking water leads to enormous cost savings and quicker turn around of the launch system!
Sounds correct.
And Space-X pays for it...
Has any citizen ever voted for creating any of those 3 Letter agencies? The only thing I know is, they burn thru Billions of Tax $$$ with nothing to show. Waist wherever you look. IMO all of them need to be demolished. As a Ham operator, my stick in the side is the FCC constantly trying to snip more and more frequencies away. Who made them the GODS of frequencies? Anyways, JC, spot on as always.

"We are from the Government, and we are here to help." Yea, right.

Don't bother, you can't win.
how much damage can ten seconds of flight cause?
This is not a purview of an organization not dealing with space flight. Congress makes the
laws, not bureaucrats.
Remember executive order 12465 by Reagan.
Thanks! Without you this old man would have never figured out Starlink.
I don't work for the FAA, but I am an insider to the aviation industry and I can tell you workers at the FAA generally can work from home, don't want the work finished "too fast", can do other things at home while working like walking the dog, etc. The FAA is not run like a business like SpaceX, it is BIG Government Bureaucratic Slug paid for by you and me. SpaceX could do the FAA agency work twice as fast and for half the price, it's as simple as that.
you have to do reviews because it costs the taxpayers billions to clean up after space x made it unliveable NO that has never been done by any for profit company ever anywhere in the US its called SUPER FUND SITES!!!
It's NEVER the government 's fault, just ask them.
As someone who has worked for both US corporations and US government agencies I can tell you first hand the cultures are quite different. While time savings, cost savings and efficiency is promoted in corporations, it is not in the government. Pay raise, time off, benefits packages and leave work early are the hallmarks of government employment.
100% believe it.
Thanks for shedding light on this @jcristina! IMO if we (the public) keep the "heat" on these meddling government bureaucrats (and associated three letter agencies) WE will be doing our part in eliminating these unnecessary man-made barriers to space. People - if you want to see Mars (or even Lunar) colonies in your lifetime, call/email your elected reps and ask them to reign in these clowns.
Blue Origin's total 25 launches is since 2015.....the last 9 years!
FFA, it's drinking water, what the hecky-heck problem do you have with drinking water. And, if it's not the water, then please tell all of us what it is you have a problem with. We pay your wages, at least you could tell us what you have a problem with and how your actions on this are saving us.

Boy, how quickly FAA came back with lame excuses. They are totally snowflaking. So typical ….SpaceX is not making changes. It’s called improvement from previous lessons learned. my opinion, FAA should do their real job before come back with long ass excuses. That must’ve taken this guy a long time to write his excuses. Maybe that’s all he did all day yesterday. lol Thanks for sharing a video.
😂 agree
I was absolutely blown away when I found out that Space X has a launch base here in the UK but it also is governed by the FAA! So even here they would need their approval to launch anything. I believe that used to be called racketeering but I could be wrong 😢
Blue origin launches are literally vertically going up 60+ miles and going down in the same area. Not at all equivalent to Spacex.
Also, SpaceX is not ignoring the environment, they have already DONE the following environmental assessments:
1. Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy Environmental Assessment (original plan for Boca Chica)
2. Starship tests Environmental Assessment (initial starhopper/starship test flights/landings)
3. Integrated Super heavy and Starship launches (IFT1 to 4)
4. Starship landings in Pacific/Indian ocean (IFT 1 to 4)
SpaceX point is that the small changes they requested will not cause any significant change to the results of all the environmental assessments and fixes previously done. Literally they are asking the FAA/environmental please inform them what else will cause safety and environmental issues so they can fix it since the FAA and environmental agencies witnessed directly all events and results in person. Literally FAA and environmental can't realistically find much counter arguments but needed to do 60 days additional environmental review because that's the process. The call for additional reviews is at the discretion of the FAA btw.
SpaceX should delay rescuing the astronauts on the ISS the same amount of time the FAA delays Starship
2 months. I like it.
JC for president !!!!!!!!!!!!! right on brotha !!! we need Elon to head up the new government efficiency office !
HEY BUDDY As of August 29, 2024, Blue Origin has successfully completed 26 missions with its New Shepard program12. This includes eight human spaceflights2.

You asked if we would go to Mars.
As a member of the Viking team, the people who built the 3 flight space craft, 2 were launched in 1975 the first arrived on July 20 1976 landing on Chryse Planitia , 22.27 North, 312.05 East.
My primary job was to evaluate the radar reflectivity of the candidate landing sites by simulating the approach under the radar guidance of the radar altimeter and the landing doppler radar, to touch down with a descent velocity of 8 feet / sec.
for more than four years we measured the environment about those landing areas.
From sight of the landers on the laboratory, I am familiar what the landed Vikings looks like.
Yes, I would try to be among the first Mars colonist, by actually flying and landing the manned space craft.
(I am a certificated commercial pilot and flight instructor)
Landing next to one Viking is not too difficult, by reference to the known size and orientation.
Using a similator the landings can be practiced, using the displayed cues from the control system.
Very similar to a normal instrument approach under ILS guidance.
For a long time now we know the Martian environment, winds, temperature, pressure, visibility with the sun behind and the ground conditions.
I will volunteer to be a crew member of the first lander.
The conditions for life on Mars are very favorable, much better than on the moon, Ouside a 1/3 pressure suit with little heating, 18% oxygen and 15% nitrogen gas mixture is close to optimal, given the 1/3 gravity. The joint flexibility of the arms and knees is more than adequate.
Inside the shelter the living quarters can be very confortable.
The primary problem are the sand storms, not the cosmic radiatiation. Plenty of frozen water and all the minerals for plant life are there: K, N, S, P.
Wow. That’s an amazing story and all that you’ve accomplished. You should be proud. It’s my hope to be able to see a man on Mars in my lifetime.
Take away the space launch licence away from FAA and hire a private company to do it with a small budget
As commented on previous video, Trump intends to make Musk the auditor of the TLAs. Excellent. He knows first hand what is waste and where it is.
Remember Blue Origin and ULA filed complaints to limit SpaceX launch cadence at Cape Canaveral? Now these permission delays, and all the negatives toward SpaceX? These highlight a fact that SpaceX had broken the barrier (big time) of launch capabilities with reusable rockets=cheaper launch with 100+ launches per year and payload potential 200-tonnes compared to the current 10 from other providers. The present facilities at the Cape and regulatory management just couldn't handle and haven't catch up to the new capabilities. Gov'ts in general are always the slowest and most inefficient at doing things.
Like centuries ago when we were paddling along the coast on small boats. Why do we need bigger boats, and what's the need of crossing the oceans? Because of the bigger boats crossing the oceans, we now have technologies: commercial aeroplanes, advanced computers and technologies, etc. Crossing the oceans on Earth was one step. As civilization, we are on the cusp of the next step: Space. Travelling vast distance and building/sustaining/living-in infrastructures in space and beyond. The cape needs to be upgraded. The rules need to be updated. The FAA (staff and knowledge) needs to be updated or separate independent FAA-like agency that is more efficient and knowledgeable.
We need Elon to do his examination of the government agencies for efficiency
Hell the F yea.
I wonder why it is problematic to put drinking water into the ocean, does it make the sea unfit for life? I guess rain does the same thing.🙃
🤪
You know, the worst traffic jam I ever experienced was on i-10 near Houston, TX. 8 lanes in a 65mph zone at a crawl. When I got to the problem, I found it was because of rubberneckers (including me). Ther was a work crew on the side of the road, and all 6 were actually WORKING. Haven't seen anything like it since.
My mood after watching a video is an issue for me. And JC reveals problems without spoiling my mood. This takes talent and wisdom.
Totally agree
SpaceX should tell the FAA to find someone else to save the ISS crew that's stranded.
😂 Send Jeff Bozos. 🤡
You have to look at when they introduced the rules. Specifically for SX..(will impact the cats and ducks).
It would seem that the people at the FAA do sarcasm really well. Us Brits didn't think your lot understood it.

God, I can't wait for Elon to get into the office of DOGE. Maybe we can get Balaji Srinivasan into the FDA this time too, as he recently suggested that now might finally be the time where they will be able to do anything about these monstrous government agencies. AFUERA!
👍I stand with you bro... Good reporting. Haters will hate!!!
It's really stupid that cutting edge rocket science works faster than paper pushing
As the son of a ww2 ace, carrier test pilot, the father of Navy pilot & Major airlines Captain, I had over 260 carrier landings in at the time the newest Navy fighter! I love the industry but my experience dealing hierarchy was amazinging! The cover ups and the rewriting of incidents that I personally experienced where enough to send me another way on my career! The CYA attitude has made me lifetime critical government over view agencies! I hope I’m wrong but what I see happening delaying space x is. Horrible? Did they delay the Boeing star liner?
No comments yet on the changes to Starlink? Price changes, Roam now allows in-motion use. The one thing I can't seem to find an answer to is how much additional data costs on the Roam 50 plan.

Firefly Alfa also launched twice in 2024. (5 total, with 1 failure, two partial success, two times successful).

The government never has a fast speed road block after road block. Welcome to slow speed 101
Man, I agree with you 1,000%!!
I can see why the FAA is concerned about flight 5 becaise of the attempt to catch the booster, but if it fails it is not likely to be any bigger explosion than some of their previious ones when there weren't as many retention ponds and walls as there is now and the explosions were really big because the ships had an almost full load on board. Don't see why they are delaying for so long unless there are personal reasons from the higher ups. "Don't cuss us out if you know what's good for you."
FAA does what it does, while Boeing continues to fly.
I think you might mean the continuously failing NASA and Boing continues to fly!
As a retired hazwoper that was based in San jose and just a few miles from Tesla Elon knows full well environmental regulations. Ca has maybe the most strict set of rules regarding the environment.we spent a month scrubbing rock in a stream from a gas tanker roll over to find out that the contamination was worse above the spill area.so I call BS why wasn't Elon called on contamination on the 4 previous flights .
The FAA and the EPA are different agencies. The FAA does not enforce EPA's laws. But they are required to withhold issuing a launch license if the applicant has not completed the EPS requirements! SpaceX has not done that because Musk does not like the EPA regulations.
The FAA got hammered for issuing launch licenses, assuming SpaceX was in EPA compliance, when in fact they were not. But the only recourse the EPA has is to issue fines. they have no authority to ensure compliance. Musk could care less about fines! The EPA doesn't issue launch licenses. So musk can just write a check and thumb his nose at the EPA.
This law was written largely because of Musk disregarding EPA regulations. This is a lot like the DMV suspending a drivers license for driving a vehicle not in EPA compliance. Musk has tried to circumvent the system because all the EPA can do is issue fines. Musk just pays them.
@@professorg8383 I doubt that is a law. It is most likely a regulation created to punish him for paying fines.
