This includes having FAA safety inspectors monitor\nlicensed activities. However, as a federal regulator the FAA has the authority\nto suspend or revoke any license or issue fines when a commercial space\noperator is not in compliance with statutory or regulatory requirements.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if you are thinking about obtaining a license from the FAA Office of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.faa.gov\/news\/fact_sheets\/news_story.cfm?newsId=19074\">Commercial Space Transportation,<\/a> please view the video.
