That is just letting them have an actual legal / official / public name of a currently unincorporated "city".

SpaceX may currently be legally organized as an entity in CA but operationally is in Texas.

All those launch and recapture videos, I think those are all already happening at SpaceX in South Texas near the MX border.

The majority of cities are named and incorporated in conjunction with their reason for existing. Makes sense.

OK, but it seems he is moving the HQ to that location now that it will be a city.

When is Bucees arriving?

Lol I am campaigning on bringing a Buccees to Harlingen! Right next to the Bass Pro, imagine!

That would be awesome!

Or just incorporate the name of the city already there. Boca Chica.

The Rio Grande Valley will become the epicenter of space travel across worlds. Book it!

I hope a private company can maintain momentum better than the U.S. Government. NASA started fast but eventually fizzled and now moves at glacial speed.

I just want to know what mascot the new high school will have.

Starbase High School Rockets ... meh
Starbase High School Astros ... meh
Starbase High school Voyagers ...
Starbase High School Explorers ...

or to highlight their reason for existence, Starbase High School Musketeers

or

Starbase High School Tigers, because that makes the most sense

SPACE, tX

Many, many years ago my family vacationed for a week at a house owned by a snowbird who was a friend of the family. The house was in Boca Chica. No one knew where that was. And with good reason.

It quite literally was in the middle of absolutely nowhere. Just three or four streets with tiny brick houses built in the 50s or early 60s. There was a clubhouse there, with a pool that was not maintained. It was supposed to be this impressive new development but I guess the developer ran out of money or couldn't interest many people in being that isolated. Our family always laughs about how weird it was.

Imagine my surprise a few years ago when I read in the WSJ about SpaceX and Boca Chica.

On Google Maps today, you can still see the little houses. Still in the middle of nowhere except now there are SpaceX warehouses, offices and trailers all around.

If not tigers, may I suggest wildcats or bulldogs?

There are these things now called cars and another thing called the internet. People are not forced to live in Starbase nor are they limited to purchasing products from a local store.

Starbase High School Marauding Martians

Starbase DOGErs

Or you know since Starbase isn't Trek based...

Merlins
Falcons
Raptors
Dragons

The HS should be called the Fightin' Spaceballs with a mascot that look like Dark Helmet. That would fit Elon.

How about a twist on the most common high school mascot in Texas?

Go Bulldoges!
