The FAA issued temporary flight restrictions around Boca Chica after granting the company a launch permit last month.

SpaceX said the next flight test aims to bring the booster back to the launch site, which they successfully did during their Oct. 13 launch. They also said surrounding areas can expect to hear a sonic boom around the landing zone.
