SpaceX designs, produces and launches the world's most innovative rockets and spacecraft. The business was established in 2002 by Elon Musk to revolutionize space transport, with the ultimate aim of creating life multiplanetary. SpaceX has gained global attention for a series of historic landmarks. It is the only private business ever to go back a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit, which it accomplished in December 2010.

The business made history again in May 2012 when its Dragon spacecraft attached to the International Space Station, exchanged freight payloads, and returned safely to Earth -- a technically challenging feat previously achieved only by authorities. Since then Dragon has delivered freight to and from the space station multiple times, providing regular cargo resupply missions for NASA. For more information, see www.spacex.com.
