Residents of the Central Coast in Lompoc and other communities nearby Vandenberg have shared their growing concerns
You don’t get the money from people visiting for launch support without there being launches. Lompoc, sorry, but you need the money.

It looks like the ones to make the call will be in the Department of Defense. And I can guess what they’ll say.
We have limited viable locations in the US to launch rockets. Vandenberg is largely surrounded by farming communities. I’m sorry, but, like Boca Chica, the greater good comes from telling some people to pound sand.

Listen all space related things were ego projects of Nazis to start with, but they’re the reason you can shit post right now.

The reason we even tried is a Nazi had a dream and the Americans gave absolute clemency.

I know Elon is a complete piece of shit. But I can also acknowledge that Falcon, Dragon, Starlink, Starshield, and Starship are good for Americans.
The greater good = More spy satellites for the National Reconnaissance Office and better internet connectivity for remote communities in the far north.
