得克萨斯州最高法院权衡了SpaceX在公众进入与空间工业安全辩论之间发射时暂时关闭海滩的问题。
Texas Supreme Court weighs temporary beach closures for SpaceX launches amid public access vs. space industry safety debate.
得克萨斯州最高法院听取了关于国家是否可以根据2013年的一项法律暂时关闭Boca Chica海滩,用于发射SpaceX火箭的论点,声称关闭的环境和土著团体违反了州《开放海滩修正案》,该修正案保障公众不受限制地进入。
The Texas Supreme Court heard arguments over whether the state can temporarily close Boca Chica Beach for SpaceX rocket launches under a 2013 law, with environmental and indigenous groups claiming the closures violate the state’s Open Beaches Amendment guaranteeing unrestricted public access.
国家维护封锁作为安全和支持不断增长的空间工业的必要条件,同时注意到联邦航空局已核准每年发射25次。
The state defends the closures as necessary for safety and to support the growing space industry, noting the FAA has approved up to 25 annual launches.
法院审查了该修正案是否允许临时限制,并质疑此类关闭的限度,由法官考虑长达一年的关闭是否违宪。
The court examined whether temporary restrictions are permissible under the amendment and questioned the limits of such closures, with justices considering whether a year-long closure would be unconstitutional.
该案可开创一个先例,在公共海滩准入与高风险活动之间取得平衡。
The case could set a precedent on balancing public beach access with high-risk activities.
