I thought for sure that SpaceX would target April 20 to launch Starship. That would be so Elon to do.

Spacex got their faa launch license on Friday. So April 17th is the first attempt, not only spacex will be webcasting the launch.

He’s beholding to environmental scrutiny by the EPA which has to sign off and issue a permit, and to the FAA which has to issue a license.

Elon has no say in the permitting or the thousands of environmental tests and reports than SpaceX is mandated to produce and pay for.

SpaceX launches at the government’s convenience.
