The area surrounding Elon Musk’s SpaceX rocket launch site in southern Texas has officially become a city after a vote by residents in the area on May 3. The city, called Starbase, has been slated to become SpaceX’s headquarters for the past few years, according to Musk.

The home of Elon Musk's SpaceX rocket company is on its way to becoming an official Texas city with a galactic name: Starbase.

Starbase may sound like some sort of galactic outpost located in the far reaches of space, but in fact, it's just the newest city in Texas.
