Big news from SpaceX. They're expanding Starship operations to Florida's Space Coast, building a massive new facility called Gigabay at Kennedy Space Center. Gigabay will be 380 feet tall with 815,000 sq ft of workspace to support production and launches of the fully reusable Starship rocket. SpaceX is also constructing a Starship launch pad at LC-39A, aiming for a first Florida launch in late 2025, and exploring launches from Cape Canaveral's SLC-37. This expansion, along with another Gigabay at Starbase in Texas, will ramp up Starship's flight rate with the goal to make humanity multiplanetary.Rendering from SpaceX.
