SpaceX's launch site, now officially known as Starbase City in Texas, has been incorporated following a nearly unanimous vote by local residents, who are predominantly SpaceX employees. The city spans 1.5 square miles and is the focal point for SpaceX's Starship program. Bobby Peden, the Vice President of Test and Launch, was elected as its mayor. As preparations advance for the anticipated Starship Flight 9, set to launch on May 27, 2025, the FAA has granted approval for multiple annual launches, pending further licensing and safety reviews.
SpaceX's incorporation of Starbase, TX, sets the stage for future launches, with Starship Flight 9 tentatively scheduled for May 27, 2025, showcasing SpaceX's innovative expansion.
The incorporation of Starbase City marks a significant milestone for SpaceX, aligning governance with the ambitious launch schedule for its Starship program, particularly Flight 9.
