Sadly, the visionary goal of getting Americans to Mars first came crashing down when the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) which, under the Trump administration had allowed for SpaceX to conduct their important test flights, ordered Mr. Musk to cancel the Starship prototype test.

The FAA did not cite its reasoning behind ordering the cancellation of the launch.

Badly written article.

1. The SpaceX mission to Mars has nothing to do with the government. Its not the US government that is ending people to Mars. SpaceX is. Congress cannot cancel it or stop funding.
2. The only part the government has in sending rockets to space and testing rockets is the FAA allowing flights.
3. Musk can simply start testing and flying his rockets from another country.. For example, France tests and launches all their Ariane rockets from Guyana in Central America which is far from France. the President Of Turkey has already been in talks with Must for SpaceX to do joint projects with Turkey.
