The Houston Spaceport is a stellar example of an ecosystem designed to support space exploration as well as its community. Co-located at Ellington Airport, the growing campus property is becoming home to some major players in the space industry. Facilities are outfitted to assist in their tenants’ reach for orbit, the Moon, and beyond.

The Spaceport is federally licensed for horizontal launches and can facilitate testing and other lower-level flights. A major part of the Houston Spaceport Houston Aerospace Support Center is innovation.

This spaceport also provides resources to its tenants. Join us as we have great conversation about how two of Houston Spaceport’s leaders connect with the community creating an ecosystem that benefits all involved.
