SpaceX’s Dragon comes home after an amazing, nominal nine Day Mission. Aside from being an amazing accomplishment for a Silicon Valley born company, the public reaction illustrates our deep national pride in US space efforts. This mission is illustration of how the public and private sector should work together. NASA’s support and expertise was essential yet SpaceX delivered the goods at 25% of the cost of the tired/expensive AeroSpace Cabal that couldn’t deliver a sequel to the Space Shuttle. In fact, NASA and it’s subcontractor United launch Alliance (Boeing+Lockheed) wracked up $10B in costs trying to develop the Constellation/Orion platform in time to take over for the Shuttle program only to be cancelled for cost over-runs and lack of progress. SpaceX has spent $1B to start the entire company and launch three successful Falcon 9 missions.
