SpaceX commits $100B to "Starbase Louisiana," its largest launch site
SpaceX is putting $100 billion into a 125,000-acre complex called Starbase Louisiana on the Gulf Coast, slated to start construction in 2027 with launches as early as 2029. At full buildout it will host over a dozen launch towers and more than 30 Starship flights a day. Musk calls it the biggest launch site on Earth by cadence, not footprint. Louisiana expects more than 11,000 direct and indirect jobs.
