SpaceX's Falcon 1 makes it to orbit
- quickpost 18y agoAwesome. This could change everything, space-wise. No more being held hostage by the Defense Contractors or the Russians to get to orbit. I think the Falcon 1 is about 1/10th to 1/7th the cost of the nearest competitor at $3million to orbit (compared to ~26million for Pegasus).
