SpaceX Takes on the US Government

It's no secret that Elon Musk has been critical of regulators, specifically targeting the FAA for its slow pace. In late 2020, SpaceX even launched a Starship prototype in violation of its FAA license. Musk made his opinions clear through his tweets, stating that the FAA's existing rules are not suited for an industry that's so drastically different from what it was a decade ago.
