Space Exploration Technologies(Space X) to launch today.

March 24, 2006

SpaceX Falcon 1According to the SpaceX web site the launch of the Falcon 1 carrying a small satellite will be launched today at 1:00 California Time.

Today could be a good day for Space X or it could turn out to be a bad day for Space X. If they can’t prove that the Falcon can fly, they have a good chance of loosing 200 Million dollars worth of pre-launch orders.

I hope they are successful with today’s launch. Space X could really turn this industry upside down. BTW, Space X was created by Elon Musk the creator of PayPal.

Good Luck Space X!

Update: Oyeee! The Falcon 1 blew up shortly after launch. That sucks!
