The US Federal Aviation Administration said on Tuesday that it plans to simplify regulations on commercial space launches and re-entry. Related initiatives include allowing operators to electronically submit launch requests, providing greater flexibility in proving the same level of safety, and merging the three required safety analyses into one application. The White House hopes to achieve at least 1,000 launches and re-entries per year by 2030, compared to 178 last year. This figure is 10 times higher than in 2013, with Elon Musk's SpaceX holding a major share. “Simplifying these key regulations will ensure that US space operators continue to lead the development of global commercial launches while maintaining the FAA's highest safety standards,” the Federal Aviation Administration said. The public can comment on the proposed revisions until November 4.
