It’s about an hour’s drive from our winter home to Boca Chica Beach, TX.
This is where the Texas SpaceX rocket production facility and launch pad is located.
We visit there at least twice each winter to see what’s new.
Last year, by the time we made our first visit to Space X, the new rocket production facility had been completed and the massive building had an equally massive mural on an end wall.
It’s definitely that! We’ll be paying our first annual visit soon. There’s always something new to see there!

It’s interesting to follow along on its development. I also hope you can see it someday.

Terry, we have seen a couple of launches from the Florida site from our community docks in Florida. I didn’t know there would be a city at the facilities in Texas, which makes sense, considering the number of employees needed for such an operation. All sounds kind of dystopian, doesn’t it? Nice that you can see it up close. Maybe they will open for tours one day.
No tiny houses last time we were there in Feb. There are a lot of smaller Airstream trailers, which oddly seem to fit the rocket ship theme. There are many new houses (not tiny houses) at Boca Chica village, which is adjacent to the production facility. The town site is now completely owned by Musk and has been renamed Starbase. We’ll check for tiny houses this winter, Lenore. Have a fab day!
