Here Comes the World’s First Spaceport
Can I say how impatient I am for that to be reality. Or at least wish that I could afford the envisioned $200,000 ticket price?
The New Mexico Spaceport Authority has unveiled plans for their spaceport, which is to be home to Virgin Galactic and the X Prize cup.
The plan is to have the spaceport be a vision of the future. Let’s see, by old visions of the future we should all have flying cars, personal jetpacks and robot servants. Maybe they’re waiting for us at the spaceport.
Really, the images they show for the plans look quite attractive. But it will be interesting to see how the designs hold up. Old science fiction shows had a certain look for the future that is completely absurd now. I wonder if this design will hold up. It doesn’t seem to be absurd now. Just very clean and lots of windows.
