Las Cruces NM (UPI) Jun 22, 2007 The New Mexico Spaceport Authority says the Spaceport America project could break ground next April. It is expected to be the first-ever purpose-built commercial spaceport, the Las Cruces (N.M.) Sun-News said Wednesday. Officials say discussions are continuing with anchor tenant Virgin Galactic, a British firm planning to send paying customers into space. Mike Holston, the spaceport's project coordinator, said the $198 million facility could open in southern Sierra County in late 2009 or early 2010, the newspaper said. A final draft of an Environmental Impact Statement will be submitted to the Federal Aviation Administration in June or July, Holston said.
