Approval is required prior to the flight

SpaceX has worked hard to prepare the Starship for its first space flight. The only thing left now is test drive and orbit access, which would require approval by the US Federal Aviation Administration.

In the long term, the Starship will be able to take humans to the Moon as well as Mars. The plan is to operate like any commercial airline, but with short, smooth flights into space.

So far, the rockets can only be partially reused, which Musk says isn’t good enough, and they’re now working on making them completely eco-friendly.
