SpaceX, Blue Origin Could Benefit From Faster FAA Approvals

MT Newswires Live07:03

SpaceX (SPCX) and Blue Origin could see faster approvals for rocket launches and reentries under a new Federal Aviation Administration rule proposing to waive certain environmental requirements, CNBC reported Tuesday.

The rule would let the agency waive requirements under 13 laws, including the National Environmental Policy Act and the Endangered Species Act, though protections tied to public health, safety, and national security would remain unaffected, the Department of Transportation said, according to the report.

The FAA authorized a record 205 commercial space operations in fiscal year 2025 and projects up to 4,288 over the next decade, the report said, adding that the proposed rule follows an executive order from President Trump directing officials to expedite environmental reviews for space launch licenses.
