The federal agency determined that more frequent launches at SpaceX's rocket site, Starbase, would have no significant impact on the local environment if the company takes the proper mitigation steps.

Elon Musk’s company will be allowed to begin launching its Starship rocket up to 25 times a year from its Starbase complex in Texas, according to the FAA.

A vote Saturday to formally organize Starbase as a city was approved by a lopsided margin among the small group of voters who live there and are mostly Musk’s employees at SpaceX. With all the votes in, the tally was 212 in favor to 6 against, according to results published online by the Cameron County Elections Department.
