A SpaceX subsidiary plans a 32.4-mile natural gas pipeline in Florida's Brevard County to supply gas for Starship fuel

A SpaceX subsidiary plans a 32.4-mile natural gas pipeline in Brevard County to supply gas for Starship fuel, and Florida's Public Service Commission approved its tariff on Oct. 6, 2026. The subsidiary, Coastal Connect Services, told regulators SpaceX currently trucks the gas in as LNG, "hundreds of truckloads of LNG per launch." Its filings name Launch Complex 39A and Space Launch Complex 37 as the delivery points and give a projected in-service date of August 2027. The commission's written order is not out yet. Once it is, affected parties have 21 days to file a protest.
