City officials say firefighters responded quickly to the small fire and quickly extinguished it. Fire rescue officials estimate about $50,000 to $100,000 in damage was done to a shipping container and equipment inside, as well as an adjacent building.
Officials say an electrical fault was the likely source of the fire.
SpaceX released a statement thanking the fire department for responding within minutes.
