Private US company SpaceX launched their Dragon rocket into a low-earth orbit successfully today. It orbited the Earth two times and then safely splashed-down into the Pacific Ocean. This is very exciting because this proves that private companies are capable of sending rockets into space. This company has plans to capitalize on space tourism.

I am really excited. I hope that I will be able to visit space before I die. Does anybody else have any thoughts about this?
P.S. I don't like Elon Musk, though. He's seems like a huge d-bag. |
