Overview
- Puth wrote on X that the latest booms violently shook his home and frightened his pregnant wife, asking Musk to ensure the noise does not escalate.
- The Dec. 10 mission launched 27 Starlink satellites from Vandenberg Space Force Base, and SpaceX’s advisory said residents might hear one or more sonic booms depending on weather and other conditions.
- Musk had not publicly responded to Puth’s post as of the most recent reports, and Billboard and others said SpaceX did not immediately comment.
- SpaceX lists another regional launch for early Dec. 14, maintaining a pace that has brought frequent pre-dawn liftoffs to California’s Central Coast.
- Community and environmental concerns continue, with regulators and conservation groups urging noise tracking; ASHA deems levels above 120 dBA unsafe, while Puth’s 150–160 dB estimate remains unverified.
