Avast! SpaceX be havin' t' mend 63 problems 'afore its grand Starship sets sail once more!

2023-09-08

Upon a hearty "mishap investigation" by SpaceX and the FAA, the federal agency hath compiled a list of 63 woes that be needin' tending afore we set sail on future voyages from yonder Texan shores.

Arr, me hearties! It seems that those scurvy SpaceX lads 'ave run into a wee bit o' trouble with the FAA, the landlubbers responsible for keepin' an eye on all things flyin'. Aye, after a joint "mishap investigation," the government agency has gone ahead and listed not one, not two, but a grand total o' 63 issues that need fixin' before the rockets can be blasted off from the Texas site again!

Now, ye might be wonderin', what sort o' issues be plaguin' these spacefaring adventurers? Well, the FAA ain't spillin' all the beans, but they be talkin' about things like launch vehicle propulsion, software, and the good ol' flight termination system. Aye, it seems there be a lot that needs checkin' and double-checkin' before they can trust these fellas with their precious metal birds.

Now, don't ye go thinkin' that it's all doom and gloom for SpaceX! Nay, me mateys, they be mighty determined to fix all these flaws and get back to doin' what they do best – sailin' through the stars. They be cooperatin' with the FAA, promisin' to address each and every one o' the issues raised. And I reckon they be makin' good progress, for they've already been given permission to launch a Starship prototype on a test flight.

So, fear not, me hearties! SpaceX may be facin' a few hurdles, but they be a resilient bunch. They'll be back in action before ye know it, explorin' the final frontier and makin' history. And who knows, maybe they'll even find some buried treasure along the way. Arrr!
