I don't think they won the bid, isn't Texas all about pulling up their bootstraps and going for it?
There was no bid. These were given out to Congressional Reps in exchange for their support of the Obama Era economic aid packages.
No. Texas is about taking enormous subsidies from the government to not grow alfalfa, to not drill for oil, and to not build a wall on the southern border. Then we spend the rest of the day complaining that we're not as popular as California.
What was the competition then? I assumed it was a bid.
Blaming Obama, really? lmao

From what I remember they were offered one but they already had the trainer still on the grounds, and didn’t have the money for new space or upkeep of that kind of artifact near the ocean when they already had a Saturn V. They are still building the space for the one in California.
