 |  Work starts on New Mexico spaceport
 21 June 2009
Ground has been broken on the construction site of Spaceport America, the world’s first purpose-built commercial spaceport. Those behind the project say that it will help provide a new chapter in space exploration. When finished in 18 months’ time, the facility will house Virgin Galactic’s space tourism business and other firms working in the commercial space arena.
