Utah Considers Building a Spaceport with New Committee Study

(Salt Lake City, UT) — Utah may explore building a spaceport, through a bill introduced by State Senator Jerry Stevenson. The bill proposes creating a committee to study the potential benefits, including scientific research and tourism expansion. However, some critics are concerned about the costs, as spaceport projects can run into the hundreds of millions of dollars. If the bill passes, the committee would receive 500-thousand-dollars for the study.
