BASICS

The 5 'W's' & 1 'H'

Who: The visionary Camden County Board of Commissioners (CCBOC) developed the Spaceport project for Georgia.

What: Over a dozen commercial space companies have signed intentions of bringing high tech jobs to Camden. It's time to bring those companies on board and to make a profit.

When: The Spaceport project has never been done before and takes time. Any new aerospace project typically takes from 7 to 11 years to get off the ground. The faces of the CCBOC have changed over the 8 years of development and licensing, AND YET the goals (see What above and Where and Why below) have not changed. This is proof of the integrity of the CCBOC, but a selfish few opposed to the project spread propaganda against the CCBOC. On December 20 2021, Camden County was awarded a very valuable license. The Federal Aviation Administration awarded Camden County Georgia only the 5th Vertical FAA Spaceport.

Where: The Spaceport project will bring back the pristine land and marshes of old chemical plants. A new road will need to be built because Harrietts Bluff Road has logging trucks and lots of dangerous curves. The Spaceport will need a safer means for customers, workers, tourists, and school tours to access the site.

Why: JOBS. The Spaceport project repurposes industrial zoned lands that have been derelict for 30 years. This land will have multiple commercial space companies on site and they will be paying taxes to fund Sheriff's (helicopters, canines, SWAT), EMTs, Fire and Rescue, and infrastructure. The monies spent thus far will be easily recouped in less than two years. After that, every dollar generated will be profit for the county taxpayers. But the project has to get to the point of launching first.

How: The bulk of the work and expenses have occurred to get the license. We're almost there. With your enthusiastic voice, the CCBOC and your state representatives can press on to the goal line. Now is not the time to give up. Contact us below to show your support and then go the extra mile and leave a message of encouragement with the County Commissioners at 912-576-5601.

Georgia Space License Plate
Georgia Space License Plate

By checking the box saying you would like to get a GEORGIA SPACE License Plate, you join the future list that will be used to contact you to initiate the process with the State. This tag is only a concept at this time and is unofficial. Typically a couple of thousand persons must show interest for the State to design the plate. We are planning for proceeds (above the normal state fees) from the sale of the plate go to county schools robotics or rocketry programs (95%) and Thiokol Memorial Project, Inc.(5%). For example, a plate bought in Chatham County will have 95% of proceeds go to schools in Chatham County for their robotics or rocketry programs.

THE GEORGIA SPACE TECHNOLOGY website and organization will never contact you for donations or solicit funds from you in any way.

By filling out the contact form, you are saying WE WANT OUR SPACE in GEORGIA! Come share your dream with us and we'll help you fulfill it!
