Spaceport America makes the Post

03.26.07

Today’s Washington Post has a front-page story about Spaceport America and the upcoming tax referendum in three southern New Mexico counties. The article is a straightforward overview of the spaceport project and those who both support and oppose the local tax. Most regular readers won’t find many new insights in the article, but it is a good introduction for those unfamiliar with the project.

In other news, the Las Cruces Sun-News reports that the state and Virgin Galactic have scheduled an announcement later today, which many people assume to be that they have reached a deal on a lease agreement for the spaceport. Last week the newspaper reported that negotiations on a lease agreement were nearing completion.
