Starship has been stacked and is apparently ready to launch as per Musk. Waiting on FAA approval for second test flight.

      There was several environmental groups that filed lawsuits after the previous launch kicked up rocks and debris. I wonder if those are all settled or of they even are with the purview of the FAA.

      The eternal question of wen FAA forever remains a mystery to all outsiders.

        Definitely within FAA’s preview. They are the ones that do the environmental risk assessment and thus any potential damage to the environment by a flying thing needs to be checked off by them.
