Picture this: Elon Musk, the king of rockets and memes, is facing off against a battalion of bare-bottomed warriors armed with nothing but sunscreen and righteous indignation. The American Association for Nude Recreation is up in arms—literally and figuratively—over SpaceX’s plans to hog Kennedy Space Center, which could shutter Playalinda Beach up to 60 times a year. This sun-kissed sanctuary, one of Florida’s few legal nude beaches, is a haven for folks who prefer their tans au naturel. But with Starship launches looming, nudists fear they’ll be forced to pack up their beach towels and migrate like endangered turtles dodging rocket debris. As one critic quipped, it’s the ultimate clash of tech titans versus tan lines, where the only explosions might be from heated Zoom calls. Will the nudists strip SpaceX of its dreams, or will Musk’s mega-rockets leave them exposed?
