Saturn boosters, Space Shuttle External Tanks, Orion Crew Module pressure shell and SLS core stage were/are manufactured here. This is a Blue City in a Red State. The Governor is a Democrat but is not a liberal. The state is solid red in Presidential and National Politics. Much like Texas or Florida. Our CEO lives in San Antonino, TX.
