Book your ticket to happiness with Sun Express Airlines. This is John Bachelor, conversation with my good colleague Bob Zimmerman about Australia and

launch into low-Earth orbit and beyond. Australia now has three spaceports. Bob explains the two new ones

and the organization the private enterprise, Gilmore, it's to operate one or more of these

spaceports. There's a booster as well. It's to operate one or more of these spaceports.

There's a booster as well. So we're looking at Australia

taking the step into space adventure.

Bob Zimmerman, behind the black.

Yes, I've got a map on behind the black and a story related to it.

The map shows two different potential spaceports in Australia.

There already is one on the south coast of Australia that has been used in the past,

but these are two private spaceports on the north coast. Up until now, neither had gotten their approvals for being a

space for from the government then we've been waiting for a long time for that but

the story here is that the eastern spaceport the balanced space, which is going to be operated by Gilmore Space,

it's a private rocket startup in Australia, has now gotten its spaceport license from the Australian

Government. So they can, they're at Facebook now can space port license from the Australian government.

So they can't that space what now can launch rockets.

Unfortunately, the Australian government has not yet issued a large license

for Gilmore's Aris rocket to large from

balance so even though they got the permission to use it as a space

what they don't yet have permission to do a launch.

Will they get that permission?

Well, we'll have to wait and see.
