• space.com
XCOR Aerospace ? the builder of the Lynx space plane ? is renovating the main hangar for the spaceship designed to bring paying tourists into suborbital space. Lynx could launch on its first test flights later this year.

The hangar renovations kicked off during an Aug. 15 ceremony in Midland, Texas ? the heart of XCOR's development and manufacturing operations ? at the Midland International Airport. In the long term, XCOR will transform the airport to a spaceport, according to company representatives.
