Proposal

With the growth in the rocket-for-hire commercial interests it's probably a good time to establish values that will properly document space ports. While similar to airports, space ports will be specific to the launching of rockets for near-space and outer space operations. While we don't currently have a lot of them around I suspect one day you might need to route to your nearest space port to hop a flight to the nearest planet for a meeting.  :)

This was proposed and accepted as aeroway=spaceport. See discussion here: https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Proposed_features/include_spacecraft_in_aeroway
