SpaceX To Build Second Spaceport In Louisiana That It Claims Could Launch Thousands Of Starship Rockets Per Year - Jalopnik

SpaceX and the government of Louisiana have announced a deal to construct the largest spaceport in world history along the Gulf Coast. The space giant will spend "at least" $100 billion building a kind of all-in-one facility that includes five launch complexes with two launch pads each, its own propellant production, power generation, vehicle processing, employee housing, and an airport. SpaceX claims that it will eventually launch thousands of its Starship rockets every year from this site, which will become its main launch location. Construction starts next year, with the first rockets getting off the ground in 2029. Its name? Starbase. Yes, just like Starbase, Texas. Apparently this is a franchise now, like... well, Starbucks.

What I'm saying is, obviously I'm curious about Lou's Lagoon, a crafty little exploration game that comes complete with a seaplane you can customise to your heart's delight, which is out today.
