“No further release is granted until a complete environmental assessment is checked,” Reuters quoted the Bahamische Communication Director Latrae Rahming as a letter on the Social Media website X.
SpaceX landed his first Falcon 9 on the Bahamas on February 18 at a Starlink satellite fleet start. The Booster of Falcon 9 in the first stage returned to earth to land on a SpaceX drone ship in the Atlantic Ocean off the Bahamian coast.
“Our new landing cooperation with the Bahamas will enable Falcon 9 to start new orbital trajectories,” SpaceX wrote about X. After this flight, officials said on the Bahamas that they had expected up to 19 more SpaceX landings all year round, but these landings were subject to official approval, Reuters reported.
