<InterOrbital Systems link. Not much new here, but interesting. I can't seem to find the references here. Is this the right site? I'm not sure what the whole deal with the island would be since InterOrbital is developing rockets that can launch right out of the ocean.

If I were going to develop an island launch site for polar orbits, I would still put it near the equator (given a choice) since there is a strong likelihood that eventually a rocket company would need to launch into more conventional orbits, and your facilities would already be there. And there is no penalty for an equatorial site for polar orbits, so why not?

My outfit back in the early '80s looked at a number of such islands. Palmyra was a good one. Now it's a nature park. And apparently cursed. So it goes.
