Elon Musk 的太空探索公司 SpaceX ,今天20岁了。

----------------------------------------------------------------

摘录几段报道:

Elon Musk founded SpaceX on March 14, 2002, with big dreams of creating reusable rockets, commercial spacecraft and other advanced technology. Musk has said that few believed it was possible, during an era when space agencies still dominated the industry and space hardware was mostly expendable, save for a few examples like NASA's space shuttle and its solid rocket boosters.

 

Reusable rocket and spacecraft technology is the backbone upon which SpaceX builds its cost estimates, which tend to be lower than those of its competitors.

 

For example, the per-seat cost for SpaceX's Crew Dragon is around $55 million, NASA's Office of the Inspector General said in 2019, which is roughly 60% less than both Boeing Starliner (projected at $90 million) and the Russian Soyuz (then $85 million).
