- It took over a year for the FAA to fine SpaceX $633,009 for something they did or didn't do in 2023. According to reports, SpaceX will be filling a lawsuit against the FAA. Elon Musk told Newsom to take a long walk off of a short bridge and moved X and SpaceX to Texas. Could he do the same for the FAA and once again move but this time maybe to an island in international waters?
Q: What should be done with the FAA and AST?
Q: Should Elon explore leaving the US altogether or simply FIGHT?

FAA the pinnacle of diverse, woke bureaucrats ever !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
For the FA&A, over one year is like overnight to them!
You said you wished people would think more logically and critically think more, that would require a fundamentally societal change for that to happen. You most likely have no idea how much would change on so many fronts if that were to happen.
I'm looking for a pacman emote
Yes for shure
Everyone keeps focusing on the FAA, but technically, the FAA shouldn't even be regulating Starship. The normal procedure, even according to the FAA, is to have NASA regulate space prototypes until they are approved for commercial use. Then the FAA is lead. That's why NASA is regulating Starliner right now instead of the FAA. Why the inconsistency just for Starship?
It is the size of the governmental swamp... I live in DoPage County, IL... in order to build a garage on my property, I have to pay to do a $20,000 wetland determination study... drain the swamp SpaceX... PS I am a Democrat
Biden
@@user-bz4cr4wi4k Politics/politicians haven't changed for 200+ years. Blame the political paradigm of coercion, force over/before reason. We need a paradigm change.
Once you don’t support Biden, you will be canceled, or maybe they will use government funded attorneys to jail you.
End the FFA In their political bullshit
No, #FFA (Future Farmers of America) should stay!
The FAA is a political organization now, it's the Democrat's way of getting even with Elon for daring to have a chat with Trump and having opinions inconsistent with their agenda. We have to understand that all those agencies are full of political hacks. Lefties appointed all kinds of useful idiots for 12 out of the last 16 years. They are dug in like ticks, almost impossible to remove.
Biden Regime hates Elon Musk.
"No man is an island..."
But a rocket ship company MIGHT be.
FAA find space x fort dumping clean water without a permit. I didn't know you need a permit to do that. Everyone that waters their lawn is guilty of that.
I find it funny that the FAA is trying to do the EPA's job while they are "so underfunded".
Don't try to use reason/ethics when evaluating a fundamentally flawed politics of brute force, disguised as "protection and service".
Yes, if NASA and the FAA keep whining about them not baking able to compete, I see him packing up and moving off shore
Indonesia maybe? Or just buy his own island chain&go full on bond villain. 😂👍🏻
@@4literv6 More likely the Philippines where I live?
"You want to take a ride?" - movie ( Contact -1997 )
Launch off an island launch facility that is a wholly owned-subsidiary of the Space X Corporation.
@@4literv6 "...just buy his own island..."??? No sovereign will ever sell, as in relinquish control, of any land. It must be taken/held by force. They only "sell" with strings.
If the FAA delay a launch, it’s budget should be cut by .0001%/day. With their precious budget at risk, these a$$holes would finally be motivated to get their sh!T together.
Money motivates much.
FAA is going to need an "Efficiency" audit real soon. HAHA
@@jiggiba3365😂😂😂😂
@jiggiba3365 just after the new year, when all government agencies get new Directors. The Directors NASA and FBI use to carry over to the new administration. This should change now that they have been weaponized into an arm of the far left wackos.
The #1 job of any bureaucracy is to preserve the bureaucracy.
Preserve and expand its power, which always results in mass destruction, total collapse. The Roman Empire collapsed from within.
The FAA has plenty of work to do without getting mired in political issues. This appears to be just that. Agencies the cannot get out of politics should be dismantled, or simply defunded. I don't want my tax dollars going to Government mediocrity.
Sad
@@jcristina Space X will be allowed to launch after the November election only to try to hurt Elon for supporting Republican agenda
Exactly 💯👏✌️
FAA can't even justify there stupidity next excuse will be the dogs are scared by the noise .
🇺🇸 :)
The excuse is Trump, it's partisan. It's purely because to prove how petty and vindictive and crooked they are, they are waking people up! They have also done this with thumbing their nose at Tesla in various ways.
@@jcristina And if the dogs don't agree to sue SpaceX, they will try with the cats.
I am not a smart guy. But however, I have been keenly aware of how the FAA would handle this whole independent space venture from the onset of operations. Now, It’s like I had a crystal ball ! “ government “. Get out of the way and let this man go.
Yes True, but maybe there are other factor envolved, China space program doen't have the same issues and,the amount of CCP spys running around across the US maybe they have someone in the FAA or that other Agency interferering.
Governments exist to "get in our way", control us for their benefit. They will destroy humanity unless replaced by a new political paradigm of non-violence, respect for rights.
FAA has to change and I won’t be surprised to find out that another company has paid or promised a job to someone in the FAA to have them slow down SpaceX
Spacex with the proper documentation should sue the FAA and of course will win.
Yep!
They ARE suing!
Meanwhile, time/money is wasted on getting justice. The FAA is unconstitutional but that doesn't matter anymore. The govt. has become "UNCONSTITUTIONAL"! Abolish it.
I think SpaceX already exploring on this option.
Sounds like the plot to a Jules Verne novel. Elon moves to a secret island rocket base, protected by an invisible thermal force field which incinerates all intruders, and secretly de-orbits satellites belonging to anyone he considers a bad player?
🇺🇸 :)
Secret??? Only governments have secrets anymore. Only governments need them to hide their immorality, their lies.
Ayn Rand's "Atlas Shrugged" was prophetic. Elon is similar to John Galt.
Exactly - Elon Galt.
Perfect. Right-On.
Relocation to an uninhabited island and eventually the moon and beyond is better/safer than a "gulch". Let the political zombies reap the fruit of their superstition.
FAA should be dismantled
They are still working on the Wright bros. first flights.
That’s just dumb! We NEED the FAA!
I surely hope so ! Way form the FAA !!!!
🇺🇸
SpaceX should charge a 10 million tax on any government contract to cover any such fines past or future. They save NASA and the military tons of money, so why shouldn't they? Even with the 10 million dollar tax per launch, they would still be way cheaper than any other launch provider.
Time to buy an island - I wonder what it takes to create a country??
I'm add to the pot
Chutzpah! L'audace! Kühn!
To paraphrase the late great John Prine, "He's got more balls than a big brass monkey".
Whomever is in charge of the unit that drastically reduced the suppressor approval times needs to take over this group as well. 😂😂😂
*Musk* holds all of the cards. I'm sure that *Mexico* would not object if *SpaceX* moved their operation a few miles to the south.
Seeing how rapidly the second tower is rising, all work can be halted, and a third tower can be constructed in *Mexico* by *SpaceX.*
*SpaceX* gets its fourth tower built even close to the equator. (Why should the *EU* be the only one with a spaceport in *Guyana?* )
Great point.. Mexico is an option and not that far to travel
Aggree 👍
@@jcristinaAccross the river, SpaceX has property on the Rio Grande, buy the land accros and build a bridge, or reach across with a crane and turn 180 degrees.
And don't forget to build a Park across for the Mexicans to derive income from the show.
Señoras y Señores
Mañana a las 10 el parque estará abierto para observar el pasage del cohete mas grande en toda la historia del mundo. Asientos se pueden alquilar para un peso, y los refrescos son gratuitos .
They must be taking lessons from the Australian state of Victoria that issues speeding fines 4 years later.
Ouch!!
Congress should start pulling funding from the FAA and change there charter over oversight for Space launches..
Elon said once: "It really should not be possible to build a giant rocket faster than paper can move from one desk to another"
Doing things in a timely fashion shows genuine care and concern. It seems obvious to me when 'concerns' about environment, wildlife and on take months and months to be acted on, it's obvious they really don't care and actually have very little concern for the things they 'say' they are concerned about.
Sounds to me like the FAA doesn't care about public safety. It looks to me is all they care about is levying fines! The FAA should be dismantled and rebuilt emphasizing public safety not fines
If that island has a extinct volcano and he gets a white cat I might start to worry 😂
😆
And a mini Elon.
Take it a step further, what about the two astronauts that are stranded up on the ISS ? They have to wait another six months for someone to go get them. How hard would it be to just send Falcon 9.5 and pick them up and bring them home? There is an opening docking port where Starliner star just left. There was talk at the time about having a Falcon X ship on a launch pad prepped and ready to launch, in the event of a catastrophic occurrence in space. Somehow, it got dropped because they wanted to do all of these tests to try and find the problem. In the process they were using excess resources on the ISS. Food, oxygen, extra waste ……. And now Starliner is home and the 2 unscheduled astronauts have to wait another 6 months to come home. Now, what’s the price tag for the 9 months or so when, if I recall correctly, Musk quoted a number a little less than $300,000 to launch a rescue ship to pick up 2 astronauts…. How long will it take the FAA to approve that launch?
the faa absolutely SHOULD NOT be in charge of anything space related. this should be passed back to nasa or a NEW specialized SPACE ONLY agency for everything that has to do with all space launches, travel, regulations, approvals, etc.
Space force has final authority second to president. Since im pretty sure space force would never get in the way its the president.
Private enterprise will ALWAYS be a target for the ruling parasites. "The govt. is NOT the answer, its the problem."
They(spacex) started out at an island in the South Pacific called Kwajalein, part of the Marshall Islands. First rocket to orbit.
The launch licensing requirement shouldn't even exist. These rockets are aircraft, like a Boeing 747 is an aircraft. A license isn't required for each flight of a 747.
Would we be in danger if there was no launch license requirement? No, because a company has a lot to lose if people, property, and the environment is harmed. It is called lawsuits, and it can run into the billions. So they will behave. Like with a Boeing 747, if there is a crash or threatening malfunction, the FAA investigates, and if they believe another launch before the investigation completes threatens people, property, or the environment, they can ground the rocket/aircraft until resolved.
In my opinion, a launch license requirement is unnecessary. They can't anticipate what's going to happen anyway. Go by what you know, not by what might be. If property, people, and the environment is not harmed, LEAVE THEM ALONE.
My guess was the launch license was political in the first place to limit competition by startups, for the sake of their darling Boeing. Costly regulations benefit large established companies.
from movie "contact" first rule of goverment spending, why build 1 when you can have 2 at twice the price"
yes yes yes!
Yes logically! And bring up China do they go through this nope, great point sir.
The FAA have spat out their dummies and now are pouting in the corner stamping their feet! Come on Elon, buy an island and call it Spacey Island. Thunderbirds are go.
FAA as an acronym has many possibilities that are more appropriate to describe the people who run it.
Always the fish sinks from the head.
I am in the Philippines, and Elon Musk is building a big house here. Sometimes when you just think logic, the truth comes out. Dont be surprised if this island thing is true, there are seven thousand islands here, I am sure one would suit Elons project.
Philippine government just lease an isolate island to SpaceX. It's a win win case. SpaceX can get out all of the BS from FAA and Philippine receive hundreds of million from SpaceX in return.
I have a different meaning for the FAA, but UA-cam will not allow me to publish it here. Their arrogance in delaying SpaceX operations over what many consider trivial matters is appalling, wasteful and delaying which is only pushing us further behind other countries that are in the same business that SpaceX is in. It would serve us right if Elon Musk moved his entire operations to another country that is not as restrictive or political as this country is becoming.
If SpaceX is delayed/stopped our species could perish before it gets off earth. ITS A POSSIBILITY! Compare that to the upside of govt. control, taxation, regulation. THINK!
He’s been there already. Kwajalein was where he built and tested his first rocket.
🇺🇸
With all the FAA nonsense going on, tonight's live stream is going to be fun!
They did have a conversation. Elon told Newsom what he needed to do.Newsom refused.
Newsom is stupid but has big ego.
The first paragraph on the FAA ‘s mission is to enhance air safety. They need to focus on that instead of becoming a political pawn.
Govt. hides, deceives the public as to its "mission". It exists to prey on producers. It is a parasite, an inhuman system of force over reason.
Space-X has an incredible record. As successful as Space-X has been the FAA should definitely be all-in and gung-ho for Space-X. If Elon wants the FAA to approve turning the Washington Monument into a catch-tower for Starship, then the FAA should instantly approve the new Chopsticks...that's how much I trust Space-X.
It's clear to all free-thinkers who the good guys and bad guys are here. But we are surrounded by dangerous political zombies, incapable of thought, justice, humanity.
Right on, right on! Independent is the way!
Yes, He can't waste time with Washington.
🇺🇸
As SpaceX is trying to save ALL of humanity, he should move the company a more friendly country or, better yet, start his own
They would lock him up if he tried to. They would make up some justification.
It's time for "A New Country Project". That began in the early '70s, but fizzed out due to lack of leadership.
Newsome looks like a mob boss to me. He is a smooth criminal.
An immoral thug who the liberals let rule, no matter his hypocrisy. Why? Are they self-destructive? Why do we let them drag us down with them? Time to fight back!
Just launch them anyway and pay the fine.
True... SMALL fine in the scope of things but still.. Ridiculous.
Sue the FAA for harassment.
Yes
"Qualified (unlimited) immunity" for govt., by govt. is TYRANNY! Wake up and admit it. We the People are sovereign over this oppressive gang of thugs. FIGHT BACK!
That was EXACTLY my idea as to what Elon should do about a week ago!!!
Call it like you see it. Beautiful
this would be a great idea! no bureaucracy or government bloodsuckers doing nothing besides slowing you down! we need a entrepreneur-island for free thinking people. i would totally support this. we should collect money and ideas!
Delaying spaceX to assist ULA and NASA, their pets have fallen behind and they just can’t stand it 🤪
facts
Ever hear about where Falcon 1 Launched from? Hell Yes he would do it again..!!
As for NASA... Why don't they just buy from SpaceX or purchase patent rights for spacesuits or Dragon Capsules? Instead of needing their own R&D department for this!
Really good point but a side to that is competition’s which drive innovation .
Just got fiber installed, cancelling skylink, it’s been great but not comparable. Still gonna stay with you, great informant.
SpaceX is not a place, it is a team of teams of remarkable people and their families working like hell to do what no one else has done. They don't want to live on an island isolated.
A mothership maybe.
SpaceX should create their own floating island just off Texas' territorial waters. I estimate the cost just below $5B.
I vote the FAA has no say in a tank farm. Unless the tank farm itself occupies airspace, I say it should fall under osha. FAA needs to worry more about companies which strand passengers in outer space, and lose doors on airplanes.
Defund FFA
FFA has become a hot steaming pile of 💩
Gavin newsom invited the dictator of China to come to California.
And now another government entity -FFA, is doing things in favor of China.
It makes you kind of wonder if newsome and the FFA are teaming up together to get back at Elon musk for moving out of California .
NO! It always was, always will be. What has changed is our realization of this fact.
I've been saying Musk should have gone the Bond Villain route even before he started building Starbase. Strap a bunch of old oil rigs together in international waters and launch from there.
Love your videos! Maybe Elon should throw out a tweet… wait is it still called that?! on X, saying he is going to explore other countries to launch spacex rockets from… without all this red tape. It’s crazy! You are so right. China doesn’t have these ridiculous steps that waste so much time.
What gives the FFA the right to approve or disapprove anything ! Elon is smarter than anyone in the FFA when he is asleep !
Atrocious! The OG leadership is too busy changing their Depends every hour to get things done quickly. The FAA new word for the day is "Expeditious". Besides, there's obvious stall tactics being done. It is likely political. Also, these low paid bureaucrats are just plain inept when it comes to rapid deployment of cutting edge innovation. "Too many changes.". Ohh, my head hurts. Please, one change at a time. Baby whiners.
sad
The FAA is 100% political, and following orders. Don't listen to their lies, excuses. It's self-deception to give them any respect. Like govt. they are CORRUPT TO THE CORE!
We need more government ? Thank god we didn’t have this government in the 60’s and wanting to go to the moon.
Has anyone ever seen Newsom and Jack Frost together in the same room? Hmm....😂
hahahaha I joke.. but damn... They really do look alike.
Of course he could move to an island. Better yet, he could build his own personal island and then move X, Starlink, and SpaceX into their new digs. He could call it "The Island of High Xpectations". Think of it as his $10 Billion Space Yacht ... first the seas, then the stars.
That was the plan in the '70s on an atoll in the Pacific. It was attacked by the US Empire. Tyranny is worldwide.
Yes. Elon musk should move to an island . if it means getting away from the Chinese controlled FFA.
It it takes them months to approve anything and years to levy fines... I think the San Fransisco model of "launch things and ask for forgiveness later" might work.... Just notify first, so they can get NOTAMs in place..
:) they can't ever levy a find in less than a year.. :)
If Space X continues to improve in this speed they will never be able to launch… 😂 the FAA is pitting America into a dark place.
I wouldn't blame him if he did, thats for sure!!!.
It’s a good idea to buy a sovereign island, then the FAA has no jurisdiction. Cheap solution.
Don't buy, create an island in the open sea, on an atoll. No sovereign nation will sell a piece of its property, without strings. You can't buy sovereignty.
SpaceX should move to Africa. They can launch 100 starships daily
Thanks!
So very kind.. Truly appreciate your support and generosity. Many blessings to you and your family!!
Space X should employ enough personnel to get the plans filed as early as possible to avoid these delays.
If it does not Matter whether your red or blue why is ELON RED now.
I guess his ideology has changed over time, why. No idea. He voted for Biden and not Trump in the last election.
Independent isn't a great term. Most people who call themselves independent are not free thinkers who calmly analyze what's going on with the raw data and research. Most of those who use the term independent don't know what's going on, they don't care what's going on, they just make decisions last minute based on how they feel at the time with limited data. Assuming they vote. Which they really shouldn't be voting unless they are what you think of when you say independent.
I love your analysis and concur..
Don't forget nobody is in any way shape or form actually independent in any modern society!
You can't make your car, make a road, refine gas, grow&slaughter all your own food, running water, clean the water, process sewage, make medicine, bandaids, the list is endless! Literally no single living individual can survive without the work daily of many many many other people!
And of course this is unpopular for ALL the western minded feminazi/misandrists but men do almost ALL of those job's everyday regardless of the weather, injuries how they feel today etc. No men no society!😀
I refuse to accept the middle between freedom and tyranny.
Those who do accept the compromise wake up and find TYRANNY.
He bought an offshore oil rig already. Float it to international waters and do what you planned years ago

Spacex is more then welcome in Puerto Rico and we need him there to build his starship and booster and towers there and what island he brought
When Musk gets his colony on Mars, the first business agenda should be a declaration of independence from Earth.
Or, for a sooner free state, the MOON. See: "The Moon is a Harsh Mistress". It fits Elon's life.
The way the FAA and the environmental has been treating them I don't know why he didn't do it sooner getting out of California was probably the best thing he ever did now if he moves out of America they'll leave him the hell alone
agreed
I wonder how many years and how many robots it will take to develop a rocket factory on the Moon. Seems like a ridiculous idea today. Maybe not so foolish a decade from now.
You hit on the point that they should be neutral in their duty as a FAA decision making, leave politics at the door. Do the job ,fast,accurately and on time
Why did he scrap the oil platform thing? Cant be national security if they wont play ball
Good question.
I can just imagine a meeting at the AST, where they spend an entire day arguing over whether to include the $9 as part of the fine, to cover delivery of the notice sent to SpaceX by registered mail. Seems they voted yes.
Space X, notified the FAA about launch changes in May, but the FAA had not approved the changes at the time of launch, a month later.
The FAA was overseeing the launch of Falcon-9 and allowed the launch to proceed with the change.
Wow!!
The FAA is unable to regulate Space activities, that sector of its current responsibilities need separating from the dinosuar of Air travel regulation.
Elon Musk should try to find an island or country to buy and found his own free Country . Than rename it SPACELAND and form his own Government togethet with the locals there...
That was tried in the early '70s, and NOT one nation would allow it, for any amount. It was called "The New Country Project" based on libertarianism.
SpaceX should relocate to another location/country where they are appreciated and without having to deal with the constant bureaucratic BS!
The 3 letter organisations don't need to "Inovate" they are a "Government Department" they continue to receive government "Tax Payer" money regardless unlike a "Real" business that either has to innovate or go out the door backwards.
Maybe the question should be, "Would Elon move SpaceX launches to an island?" Or, maybe,"Could Elon move SpaceX to an island?" It seems to me he needs to leave his rocket factories where they are already connected to their supply chain.
Can’t wait until Elon Musk get elected Trump cabinet because payback is gonna be a bitch 👻
When Musk was acquiring the Boco Chica location he was also working with the Honduran government for a "back up" launch facility in case the US Government attempted to "seize control" of SPACEX.
Like I said before, "If it was up to the FAA the Voyager probes would of never made their launch windows for the Grand Tour!" That is window for free trajectory and gravitational boost only occurs at an interval on 175 years. Actually if it had been up to NASA, Voyager 1 & 2 would of been sacrificed as pathfinder for the Pioneer probes. Fortunately JPL had enough political pull to make the Grand Tour happen with the probes they built.
If I was Elon Musk, I would write a letter to the FAA and say due to the going discussion about safety and other related matters I’m going to have to postpone the rescue attempt of the two Boeing astronauts due to their failure. I need to spend my resources on more paperwork and less innovation. Perhaps you can contact comrade Putin I’m sure he would be glad to help you sincerely, Elon Musk.
Don't get me wrong, the FAA is a determinate body of professionals, that are to protect our air worthy endeavors in and around the USA, or to ANY agency entering and given or stated US airspace dictorate. The inherent issue is they are stuck in their aged and deficient process. They are politically biased when needed and are NOT agents of change. These processes are still based on the govt approach to flight and not commercialized air transit. They can't have their cake and eat it too. There should be joint supervision of the commercialization of space, but the FAA MUST relinquish their regulatory control and move in sync with SpaceX. They (SpaceX) are innovators first and regulators second... The FAA has to recognize this fact and change their process. I hope, if President Trump is elected; he will work with SpaceX and turn the FAA into a body of innovation regulation and unleash the shackles the FAA is placing on SpaceX. Else, the FAA should take back the commercialization of Space and put it back squarely back into the whole of govt process and then put the burden back on the taxpayer to be the pioneers of space; but its gonna be hard to put that genie back in the bottle, so there really is no other choice but to get the FAA out of the way.
Great comment.
