Wait ... did Elon mention building a spaceport in Brownsville, TX? I can see how that would work well for GEO and GTO launches. That's an interesting breakdown

Wait ... did Elon mention building a spaceport in Brownsville, TX? I can see how that would work well for GEO and GTO launches. That's an interesting breakdown for launch manifests:
- FL, 39a: the NASA launches
- FL, 40a: the DoD launches
- TX: the GEO launches
- CA: the polar launches (Vandenberg)
It is interesting, that by bringing the lawsuit, Elon is essentially saying "hey! how come the block buy deal magically appeared only now that a viable competitor exists?"

They've leased a site off shore on an island in the Laguna Madre. http://www.valleymorningstar.com/news/local_news/article_1e58c04a-75ba-11e3-a5f7-0019bb30f31a.html?mode=jqm http://www.valleymorningstar.com/news/local_news/article_1e5...
