SpaceX, founded by Elon Musk in 2002, made history in 2010 when it became the first private company to return a spacecraft from space.
The SpaceX Falcon 9 rocket is a reusable launch system in line with Musk's goal of bringing down the cost of spaceflight. This vehicle delivers satellites, space station cargo, and crews to low-Earth orbit.
