   Unlike physical laws, there are ways around human laws. In this case a bit   
   of legal research should turn up a way to shield a U.S. citizen from   
   prosecution or a need to get authorization from the FAA. For example, it   
   should be possible to get around the problem simply by having the U.S.   
   citizen establish a business in a foreign country, which would then be the   
   legal entity that would design, build, and fly the rocket.   
      
   Some of the basic techniques used to establish tax havens seem likely   
   mechanisms.
