FAA to accept higher aircraft risk from space debris under new policy
Original: FAA will accept more risk to aircraft from space debris under new policy
The Federal Aviation Administration is preparing a new policy under which it will accept more risk to aircraft from falling space debris, according to a report by The Air Current. The change would relax restrictions on flight closures during rocket launches and reentries, a move that could benefit the fast-growing commercial space industry while raising safety concerns among pilots and airlines.
Why now: Growing launch activity and reentering rockets are forcing regulators to rethink airspace safety rules.
