Elon Musk is dedicated to expanding humanity into space, and SpaceX is at a critical juncture in the development of an interplanetary transport ship.  That progress could all be stopped by the federal aviation administration refusing to approve further testing or even ordering the Starship tower torn down.  Are there powerful interests trying to slow SpaceX' progress?  Could perhaps, the wealthiest man on Earth, be behind the current complaints against SpaceX operations?


The Terran Space Academy gives you a primer on the politics of space development, the vested interests massing against SpaceX, and the lengths people will go to maintain the status quo.
