I am wondering why NASA can't launch from somewhere at the westernmost end of the Mojave desert or something, and ditch stages to where they won't and can't hit anything because there is next to nothing there. It would allow reuse of rocket stages, cheaper recovery fees, and not impede sea trade. Of course airlines might get in the way, and other things. Can somebody tell me why NASA/JPL/SpaceX/any rocket company in America can't do this? Also if this should be moved, please move it.
