SpaceX plans November test flight to space station
WASHINGTON — California-based rocket maker SpaceX said that it will make a test flight in late November to the International Space Station, now that NASA has retired its space shuttle program.

"SpaceX has been hard at work preparing for our next flight -- a mission designed to demonstrate that a privately-developed space transportation system can deliver cargo to and from the International Space Station (ISS)," the company, also called Space Exploration Technologies, said in a statement.

Cool. I had no idea they were that far along.
It is precisely because it is fashionable for Americans to know no science, even though they may be well educated otherwise, that they so easily fall prey to nonsense. They thus become part of the armies of the night, the purveyors of nitwittery, the retailers of intellectual junk food, the feeders on mental cardboard, for their ignorance keeps them from distinguishing nectar from sewage. — Isaac Asimov

SpaceX Plans Largest Rocket Since Moon Program

An American company is planning to build the largest rockets since the days of NASA’s Apollo program, and promises to deliver payloads to orbit for a tenth the cost of the space shuttles of the U.S.’s troubled space agency. SpaceX has already successfully launch a smaller vehicle called the Falcon 9 on several occasions, but now the company has announced plans for a bold, new step in the development of private space flight.

Re: SpaceX plans November test flight to space station
This is a huge deal.

See, I was never overly impressed with Virgin's proposals which basically amount to a bigger, better, slightly longer trip on the vomit comet for a massivly inflated price.

But this is 100% true private space travel.

There are two things which will drive a sector like space travel forward from where we are now.
War or profit.

War is faster (think about aviation during ww2) but nasty.
Profit is slower as investors are wary of being burned but it still gets the job done.

Can't wait for Nov.
