Environmental groups have filed a supplemental legal claim against the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS), alleging that they failed to properly analyze the environmental impacts of SpaceX's Starship launches. The groups argue that the agencies did not meet the requirements of the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) and did not conduct a thorough review of the environmental effects of the launches. On the other hand, some argue that the agencies have caused unnecessary delays with bureaucratic red tape. The FAA is currently overseeing an investigation into the destruction of the Super Heavy booster and Starship upper stage during the second Starship launch.
