In the suit, SpaceX is asking for an order that would declare SpaceX Facon 9 launch program “federal agency activity,” meaning that the state agency could not regulate it through its permit process, and declare that the commission’s decision to reject the launch plan violated the 1st and 14th amendments of the Constitution.

Herby’s letter dated June 1 suggests the team change its name to “Macon Facon Bacon,” referring to a plant-based bacon.

For the French, these arrangements were not only accepted but even encouraged by an official edict that governed mariage à la façon du pays, or “the custom of the country.”

Facon’s lawyers said he suffers from hypertension, hepatitis C and type 2 diabetes.

Although the U.S. attorney’s office in the District has opposed all but a handful of the petitions, Facon’s case marks the first time that prosecutors have gone to the Court of Appeals to challenge an approved release.
