From geekology,Spaceport America is scheduled to open in 2010, and this is the final design. Located in New Mexico, it's to be 100,000 square feet and cost about $31 million to build. Incorporating the latest in green technology, it promises to be environmentally friendly (minus all the rocket fuel). It will serve as a functional spaceport where Virgin Galactic will send richer than hell people here, or further into the cosmos. For poor people it will be a tourist attraction. It will be the headquarters of the XPrize Cup and the Rocket Racing League. It will also look like a giant public restroom toilet seat when viewed from above.

Am I wrong or does 31 million sound like too low a figure for a spaceport? Oh well, whatever. As long as the stewardesses are dressed like their counterparts in Fifth Element, I'm there.
