Over the last couple of weeks private and public donors have pledged or given $660,000.
Matched with money already granted, by the Federal Aviation Administration, it puts funding closing in on a million dollars.
The next steps will be hiring consultants and then planning out the whole deal so that they can apply for a spaceport license.
Front Range Airport is to be the home for the future spaceport.
Located six miles east of Denver, the airport is already one of the largest general aviation airports in the country, and it has nothing but room to grow, out on the plains.
Currently plans are on pace for the spaceport to be finished within ten to fifteen years.
