SpaceX is waiting for FAA Safety Approval before they can launch their 200m Starhopper flight test, but why are there so many FAA NOTAM’s if they don’t have FAA approval yet? Let’s dive into that here! #SpaceX #Starhopper #NOTAM

Yes a TFR is much larger scale than a high altitude balloon NOTAM, but the concept is the same. SpaceX can just request an airspace reservation. There's honestly not a whole lot more steps needed to issue a TFR. TFRs typically need 1 to 5 days notice.
Did it fly on Monday? 🙂
Almost the same… except fly day is Tuesday instead of Monday!
here because you told me to watch it again XD.
NOTAM – TFR -FAA – SN1-10….. – VOR – AFTS. Got it!!! 🙂
Thanks, really glad I found your channel ?
Why are FAA approvals not published the same way like NOTAMs?
I confidently redict that the 4th hop will be a non smashing success
I think that Star Hopper will fly on Tuesday the 27th.
2:25 that logo on the building looks a lot similar like the logo of stark industry
Thank you for explaining what the hell the thing is.
Have you seen this Gateway Foundation? I heard they plan to start this year.

Thanks for showing how a NOTAM is issued. As a private pilot, I read NOTAMs but never knew how they' were created.
It’s cause pilots are dangerous and need to be replaced by computers.
I'm a new sub, great explanation in a field I'm not familiar with, thanks. I don't think the Starhopper is going to fly, it might hop, once. I hope it won't be a diversion from some other news coming out at the same time. Anyway, great video!
Fly baby Fly!!!
Your public speaking skill is outstanding. It is so easy to understand and follow you, even if I am just listening and not watching the video the entire time. Superb job Tory!
Sounds to me like they don't want any more bush fires like last time. SpaceX were slow to respond and if a 200m flight starts lots of fires there is a real hazard to people and wildlife.
Bureaucracy stymieing innovation.
So progressive!!!!
Not on Monday but later in the week.
Great information
I don't have hopes for Monday :/. I have a bad feeling about this :/.
Great video. Thank you.
Concise information from someone with relevant background knowledge and the ability to present it. Subbed.
Not Monday bit i say itll fly Tuesday at 5
Thanks. This helped explain why the FAA seems to jerking SpaceX around on this. I hope it's legitimate safety concerns and not some competitor to SpaceX influencing things.
I suppose an AFTS trigger at 200m (and/or below) is not much difference to having a kaboom on the ground… Thats probably why its taking a while to get stuff sorted.
Subscribed, so happy to have discovered this channel!
Love this explanation! Very informative. Also love the explanation of terms in your reply to the Notam question/alienese. Even though I’ve heard you make the call a dozen times I never understood the terminology. Ha.
Yessss I do think they’ll fly and I’m soooo excited for it, thanks for the awesome video. It really helped explain a lot.
Thanks for clearing up the NOTAM issue; I'm optimistic for a Monday flight but far from certain. (Pete)
I’m new to your channel, great content and very informative. Love it ?
Awesome channel ? subscribed of course and keep up the good job!
Why not building a 200m wall around the StarHopper with flashing lights and boards with a danger print on it 😉
And of course we ll put an employee waving a flag every meter so maybe FAA would be ok 😉
Is it true that Starhopper does not have a FTS?
