Space billionaires' rockets are making life difficult for airlines

The US licensed only 23 commercial launches last year, but that's likely to increase. As the launch industry matures, the ultimate goal is to incorporate spacecraft into the routine flow of the 42,000 daily aircraft that the FAA controls, making a SpaceX Falcon 9 bound for the International Space Station no different than an American A321 headed to Miami.

"The next step," said Canoll, is to put space travel and air travel together, so rockets "can operate along with us."...........
