and more people moving into this area. The article made me feel proud to live in
Houston as it has become a center of space exploration that includes more companies
besides NASA. The article did not evoke many emotions because its primary purpose

way. After I read the article some thoughts I had were what other companies will be
moving into that area and how long development might take. I was also wondering how

by the government or not since much of it is still undeveloped. Something the article did
not mention was whether NASA would also be developing in that area. I’m interested to
see if they will also be building a facility there or if they have plans to collaborate more
with the companies that are moving in there.
