The world's first commercial spaceport, which will be located in New Mexico, begins in 2008. Holy crap.
A newly released design rendering:
According to the New Mexico Spaceport Authority (NMSA) and Virgin Galactic:
"A team of U.S. and British architects and designers, accompanied by officials from the New Mexico Spaceport Authority (NMSA) and Virgin Galactic, [unveiled] the design renderings of Spaceport America at a press conference...in Las Cruces, New Mexico. Construction on the 100,000 square-foot hangar and terminal facility is scheduled to begin in 2008."
Initial ticket prices are $200,000 apiece. Is that all?
