SpaceX is set to build its largest and fourth spaceport in Louisiana, a $100 billion project hailed by Governor Jeff Landry as transformative—comparable to the Louisiana Purchase. The facility will power up Starship launches and satellite deployments, backed by major state tax incentives. SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell affirmed strong commitment, while environmental groups warn of coastal damage and demand more transparency. SpaceX counters with promises of conservation efforts, erosion control, and community engagement through town halls. Construction kicks off in 2027, with first launches targeted for 2029—and could create 3,000 jobs over a decade.
