I think it will never not blow my mind that south Texas is a legit space port. (That's assuming it plays out as planned, of course. I think we still have to see if environmental concerns outweigh the development opportunity?)
Well, there's a balloon launch site further up the coast in Wharton, I think, that they were calling a space port, but I always thought that was a little bit of humor. It's different for me to imagine driving down to the valley to see a monster rocket go to Mars.
