> According to the author, the FAA doesn't know what they're doing, SpaceX doesn't know what they're doing, the National Environmental Policy Act which exists solely to protect the environment in these scenarios apparently didn't work, but this uninvolved author somehow knows better than everyone that's actually involved. I read TFA and that's not what I got from it at all. I read that Musk optimized for speed and cost, so he skipped normal things like a flame trench and water suppression. (although I recall the latter being hastily installed prior to the last test) As a huge SpaceX fan and tank watcher, I can say that those are all things that I and many others have been concerned about as well. But don't worry, this piece is flagged now so people won't have to worry about any of these silly things.
