SpaceX designs, manufactures and launches the world’s most advanced rockets and spacecraft. The company was founded in 2002 by Elon Musk to revolutionize space transportation, with the ultimate goal of making life multiplanetary. In 2010, SpaceX became the first commercial company in history to send a spacecraft into orbit and return it safely to Earth. In May 2012, SpaceX again made history when its Dragon spacecraft became the first commercial vehicle to successfully attach to the International Space Station, something previously accomplished only by governments. And in October 2012, SpaceX’s Dragon capsule once again successfully delivered cargo to and from the space station, officially beginning the era of commercial cargo resupply.

On Friday, SpaceX’s Grasshopper rocket flew 820ft (250m), hovered, and landed – more than tripling its last leap.
Watch SpaceX’s Grasshopper’s 24-story hover slam – an 80 meter vertical flight, 34 second hover, and incredibly precise landing: http://spacex.com/multimedia/videos.php?id=0
Last night, Dragon made its way into the Port of Los Angeles on the recovery boat. Mission accomplished!
Last week, SpaceX’s Grasshopper rocket leapt 820ft (250m) in the Texas sky, held against high winds, and landed safely mere feet from where it started.
Falcon 9 and Dragon rolled out from the hangar, looking pretty on the pad! Launch targeted tomorrow morning at 10:10AM ET / 7:10AM PT. Watch LIVE at www.spacex.com/webcast.
