NASA - Commercializing Space (SpaceX)

Ladies and Gentlemen,

The first spacecraft of the private sector has launched this morning and is heading to the International Space Station with supply from Earth... It is about the Falcon 9 rocket system and the cargo version of the Dragon space capsule of the SpaceX Company... It has been a beautiful launch - just like stately run launches in the past...

After this 1st private space flight many more ones are to come, SpaceX is planning even more capable spacecraft and there are other companies preparing their space flights, too... That's why I cannot comment on every space flight of the future... As far as I know there can be maximum 2 spacecraft launches and/or returns in an hour: you'll only have to look up in the night sky to see spacecraft...

Best wishes, Joseph de la Mikula and Team
