Marsabit County has emerged as the most suitable county in Kenya to set up a spaceport. A spaceport is a site for launching spacecraft, similar to a seaport for ships or an airport for aircraft.
Marsabit County emerged as the most favorable location to set up a spaceport due to its large tracts of unoccupied, affordable land, sparse population density, low trafficked airspace, generally flat terrain, and proximity to the LAPPSET corridor.
Speaking while receiving the report, Kenya Space Agency (KSA) Acting Director-General Col. Hillary B. Kipkosgey says the benefits of establishing a spaceport capable of launching rockets within Kenya are numerous and would positively impact the growth of the country.
“The development of highly innovative industries such as this provides current and future employment opportunities in many sectors, and the potential for growth in supporting industries.
