    Pardon me for asking but what is a spaceport? From my understanding, an airport is for airplanes and spaceport is for spaceships. Am I right on this assumption. If that's the case then would that mean a revival of the space program that NASA had seemed to discontinued? Or perhaps that spaceport is intended to be used byht those planned Mars trips by private enterprises?

    Okay, now let me read the link. Congratulate me. I am right on my guess that it is for commercial space flights.
