U.S. Company Plans $265M Spaceport in UAE

UAE Spaceport

Another multi million dollar spaceport pops up..

"Last December, British tycoon Richard Branson announced development of a $225 million spaceport in southern New Mexico, which will be the headquarters of Branson's Virgin Galactic space tourism company."

Personally, I give Branson a huge .
He's moving the private sector in new directions. About time one of the "elite" does this.

Just my 2 cents,
Lex

And then there was two.

Personally I think Virgin Gallactic will be the more successfull one...since Space Adventures has yet to reach sub-orbit. But never the less, competition is always good.

Heres there base, and there ship.
