Regulators insist on 63 corrective steps after world’s largest and most powerful rocket blew up on debut in April

The Federal Aviation Administration said it closed its investigation into SpaceX’s failed debut of Starship. The agency is requiring SpaceX to take 63 corrective steps and to apply for a modified FAA license before launching again.
