My question is where they can go from there with the facility? Right now, every-man space flight is defined as a $200,000 one-drop roller-coaster - a hell of a ride, to be certain, but not one that'll have permanent legs (especially when th next recession hits). But when true commercial orbital flights become possible, will they be flown from here? Or is this gigantic spaceport / vulva merely a pretty picture for a stepping-stone space vacation?

That's cool. The building looks like a UFO.
