well true but the oklahoma one is what? stalled, not commercial space port? i forget what the circumstances are. oh wait. there is no buildings there yet is there? that is why i would think people would consider the other one the first.

Uhm , there are buildings and have been launches also. even commercial.

http://www.armadilloaerospace.com/n.x/Armadillo/Home (http://www.armadilloaerospace.com/n.x/Armadillo/Home)  <--- is one company in fact. If most people don't accept the reality of Oklahoma having the first space port ever, I don't know what else I can say.


http://www.okspaceport.state.ok.us/spaceportfacilities.html (http://www.okspaceport.state.ok.us/spaceportfacilities.html)  <---- link to buildings.

http://www.okspaceport.state.ok.us/spaceflightactivites.html (http://www.okspaceport.state.ok.us/spaceflightactivites.html) <---link to flights.

I don't know how to argue with stalled, except to say , it isn't. :shrugs:

The site is A1 for space flight Little to no air traffic and no sat cross path so launch any date - due to weather.   Newmexico is the new hollywood same with private space travel.  Hell dont screw with the nuke bomb makers  :P.

Yes i recall some TV show   :crazy2: saying the Entire east coast all the way to the colorado flat plains was all thick forest before the colonys. Was said all the wood was farmed out to create the 13 colonys.  They say most of the east coast was simmler to amazon, flush thick could never die out, just cutting down All the trees it would recover. Funny how that played out. + no gizilionare wants to risk his $100,000 flight to the new ISS hotel due to the average twister  :laugh:.
