Current plan is 10 launch sites. Crazy to say but it will be the largest space port in the world

If even a fraction of the "rumors" turn into reality, it is mind boggling for this coonass. Bridges across white lake, new town of 5k, 10 launch sites.
I do vote the town be called "KEYAWville"
KEYEAWW!

We'll see.
I'm cautiously optimistic.

This is one of those "I'll believe it when I see it" situations. It's hard for me to comprehend that Louisiana could actually get something this big and complicated to the finish line without screwing it up. Elon doesn't have a long fuse or a tolerance for BS.

Wild. That’d be pretty damn impressive

Louisiana should be proud. Two weeks ago Grimes Country Texas got a 100 million square foot AI/microchip plant construction started. Louisiana or Musk one upped that for La.
Somebody needs to get the mosquito extermination contract.

Thanks, I just saw a link of hers posted on FB by an old schoolmate who is too gullible and ignorant for words.
These people wallow in being victims.
They sit back and wait for someone to creat jobs, and when the biggest opportunity in the history of the state comes along, they scream about the billionaires and the politicians, and how it’s going to hurt the environment.

Just curious, it says Exxon owns most of the acres in Vermillion Parish.
What family or person owned the land before Exxon?

Per ChatGPT
quote:
The land was originally assembled in the early 20th century by Edward Avery “E.A.” McIlhenny, a member of the family behind Tabasco on Avery Island. McIlhenny accumulated roughly 150,000 acres of coastal marshland with the idea of creating a huge hunting, fishing, fur-trapping, and recreational property.
The ownership chain is roughly:
E.A. McIlhenny / associated investors / Louisiana Fur companies / Humble Oil / Exxon / ExxonMobil / potentially SpaceX
More specifically, McIlhenny’s interests evolved through several companies, including Louisiana Land and Mining Co., Louisiana Gulf Coast Club, Louisiana Coast Land Co., Louisiana Furs Inc., and eventually Louisiana Furs Corporation/Vermilion Corporation.
In 1958, Louisiana Fur sold the property to Humble Oil & Refining Company, but the owners structured the transaction so that Vermilion Corporation retained a 99-year surface lease. That allowed Vermilion Corp. to continue managing hunting, fishing, trapping and other surface activities even though Humble owned the underlying land.
Humble subsequently became part of Exxon, and the property ultimately ended up with ExxonMobil. Today it’s an enormous contiguous tract around Freshwater City/Pecan Island, extending toward the Gulf. Current reports put the SpaceX-related tract at roughly 130,000 acres.

A biiz friend already has the contract to supply cryogenic storage tanks. Looks like it is going to be bigger than Starbase.
I was on the phone with an old classmate this evening. Her stepson who manages a 7000 acre duck lease between the ridge and the coast had the lease renewed..

WRONG. Exxon bought Mobil. Mobil bought Superior Oil in the early 1980s. I hunted there in the early 70s when it was Superior. A major north south canal was known as the Superior Oil Ditch

Who's got the hookup on what kind of transportation/trucking needs they'll have? Kindly direct them my way.
