That would be so Elon to do.


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.

He should have negotiated an Air Force contract to launch something for free. Air Force launches are exempt from most of the environmental piddle.
