Basically, the corridor makes for a highway in the sky. The infrastructure would allow companies and the Department of Defense to run experiments. The highway in the sky would incentivize dozens of space companies to start up or move right here to the Basin. But before the project launches, MDC has hired a company to study this region to see if something of this magnitude would be possible.
