Elon Musk:
Starbase Louisiana will ultimately have over a dozen launch towers, enabling more than 30 Starship flights per day and making it the biggest launch site on Earth!
SpaceX makes sci-fi real.

Not an ideal location. It’s going to get really, really wet every few years.

As the Southern states become the center of so much of corporate headquarters, finance, movie making, technology, and space adventures, the more they grow in public perception of wealth and modernity, and sophistication, and the more the Northeast and even California start looking old fashioned and slow, stale, and part of the rusting past, the backwards part of the nation.
Twenty or 30 years from now, who knows how the public will see the different regions and states.

Number one visitor to this new Starbase, will be hurricanes and tropical storms.

3,000 employees.
$100 billion investment.
Each employee needs to generate $33 million in revenue - just to break even.
Sounds like a very big reach to me.
