Trump signed an executive order to ease commercial aerospace regulation, and companies like SpaceX have welcomed this major advantage.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order to relax commercial space regulations, bringing significant breakthroughs to the space industry that has long been calling for a reduction in administrative barriers. The order requires the Secretary of Transportation to cancel or expedite the environmental review process for launch and reentry permits, and abolish "outdated, redundant, or overly restrictive" regulations for spacecraft. In addition, the order calls for an evaluation of whether states are obstructing the construction of spaceport infrastructure, and streamlining the authorization process for new space activities. A White House statement pointed out that the current inefficient licensing process has hindered investment in innovation, limiting the competitiveness of American companies in the global space market. This move aims to build a more competitive launch market, with the goal of significantly increasing commercial space launch frequency and the scale of new space activities by 2030. Dave Cavossa, President of the Commercial Spaceflight Federation, emphasized that the Trump administration is actively working to maintain America's leadership in the space domain in the face of intense competition from countries like China. It is worth noting that the United States and China are the only two countries in the world with independent space forces. Industry figures, including SpaceX CEO Elon Musk, have long criticized regulatory barriers that slow down space operations. As a leading company in the launch business, SpaceX is expected to be the biggest beneficiary of this policy. Other notable space companies include Jeff Bezos' Blue Origin, Virgin Galactic, Rocket Lab, Firefly Aerospace, as well as the United Launch Alliance, a joint venture between Lockheed Martin Corporation and Boeing Company.
