The Spaceport held an open house last Saturday, and guests who registered a car with at least two people in it were allowed to visit.

Spaceport America in New Mexico hosted their first movie shoot. The movie called The Space Between Us, tells an exciting story from the future. It features a first rate cast and they were happy to be able to provide an exciting backdrop for it. There were over 400 crew, actors and extras at the spaceport during the shoot.
To be frank I always thought it was overkill to build it like this and I’ve always had my doubts about Virgin Galactic. It was premature to build this place.
Thanks. You saved me a road trip. I live ten miles from the NM border and have been considering a visit for quite some time now.
