Senate introduces bill to streamline commercial space regulations
2018-07-29
h/t Instapundit
Three senators introduced legislation July 25 to reform commercial space regulations, including a provision that conflicts with language in a bill passed by the House.

The Space Frontier Act, S. 3277, primarily focuses on reforms to regulation of commercial launches and remote sensing. It includes language calling for streamlining of processes for licensing launches and reentries as well as for licensing remote sensing spacecraft. It also includes language authorizing an extension of the International Space Station to 2030.
It is the 21st century after all

#2  Even worse that commercial loop around the moon for paying customers? The government wants proof they will not show photos looking back at Earth. They even suggested not permitting the paying customers to carry cameras.

#1  The remote sensing laws are so stupid that Musk and SpaceX got in trouble for the Earth coming itto view on their launch feed while releasing a satellite. Seriously!
