Space Florida Cape Canaveral Air Force Station (south of Shiloh) to state land that might be used as a commercial spaceport. The efforts in late 2014 to find an alternative ultimately came to fruition in 2015 to open a Space Florida spaceport at a different location, with the September 2015 announcement that Blue Origin would manufacture their new orbital launch vehicle at Exploration Park, and launch the rocket from Launch Complex 36. Space Florida has partnered with NASA on the following facilities: Space Florida Space Florida is the aerospace economic development agency of the State of Florida. The agency was created by
Future of space exploration star is around 4.24 light years away. The current status of space-faring technology, including propulsion systems, navigation, resources and storage all present limitations to the development of human space exploration in the near future. The astronomical order of magnitude of the distance between us and the nearest stars is a challenge for the current development of space exploration. At our current top speed of 157,100 miles per hour (70.2 km/s), the Helios 2 probe would arrive at the nearest star, Proxima Centauri, in around 18,000 years, much longer than a human lifespan. In terms of propulsion, the main challenge is
