About the project

SpaceX plans a $100 billion-plus Starbase Louisiana campus in Vermilion Parish, with construction beginning by the end of 2027, a first launch targeted as soon as 2029, and 3,000 direct new jobs over the next 10 years. The site is expected to include employee housing. Sources: Louisiana Economic Development; location near Pecan Island, about 50 miles south-southwest of Lafayette, per the Louisiana Illuminator, Aug 25, 2026.

Because SpaceX plans employee housing on site, this page is for the construction contractors and subcontractors who mobilize before that housing exists. Distance from the crew house to the launch site is measured per plan and not published until measured.
