Inside the Pentagon, the pressure is on to find a home for a new spaceport
Summary
Ars Technica reports that the Space Force is under pressure to secure a new spaceport by 2030 to relieve congestion at Cape Canaveral and Vandenberg. The service is exploring options including public-private partnerships, a new federal installation, or state land, with no firm timeline yet. Projections show a significant increase in launches by 2036, and officials note multiple existing sites and potential private options as part of a broad evaluation.
