Government Seeks Public Input On New Launch Locations
The US space industry is experiencing rapid growth, with the number of rocket launches expected to soar in the next decade. To support this growth, the Trump administration is seeking public input on ideas to expand launch capacity, including the development of new launch sites and upgrades to existing spaceports. The Federal Aviation Administration is asking for comments on where new spaceports should be built and how priority airspace should be designated for critical space-launch routes.
