Welcome to New Mexico - we've got space!
On behalf of the State of New Mexico and the New Mexico Spaceport Authority, I welcome you to Spaceport America, the nation's first purpose-built commercial spaceport!

As we continue to plan and develop Spaceport America, we invite you to find out more about its unique benefits and features, both for the people of New Mexico and for the growing commercial space business.

When it comes to outer space, we're bringing it down to earth in New Mexico!

Kelly O'Donnell, Deputy Cabinet Secretary, New Mexico Economic Development Department.
