Elon Musk just got the rocket-regulation overhaul he's wanted for years, but insiders worry the changes won't solve major headaches — and may create new ones

With that growth came "a lot of pounding on the table" by players frustrated with FAA rules. SpaceX and its founder, Elon Musk, "pushed, pushed, pushed, pushed, pushed" for a launch license almost "immediately" and questioned the agency's processes, the person familiar with the FAA processes said.

"They used only the absolutely necessary amount of time to actually engage on the substance with the stakeholders. And we tried to urge them over and over and over again to continue to involve industry," the person at CSF said. "This isn't a criticism, this isn't blame. It's just that we would have certainly been happier with a draft if they had spent a little bit more time talking with us.

In response to these and other comments that Business Insider shared with the FAA, a spokesperson said the new regulations are "a result of collaboration with industry and stakeholders to modernize FAA regulations and ensure the safety of all launch operations," adding: "The agency considered all comments from industry and the public before completing the rule in less than two years.

"We're hoping in a couple weeks we can ask really educated questions about this," Powers said, noting the FAA has scheduled a three-day workshop for early November to go over the particulars. "I'm sure it will probably take a few months for us to really get our arms around all of the details."
