Default SpaceX news conference last week


First part was about the successful Falcon first stage reusability test
that was part of the recent CRS flight. It was successful.

The second part was about SpaceX trying to compete with EELV and will be
suing in an attempt to level the playing field.

These certainly are interesting times for the US launch industry.

"the perennial claim that hypersonic airbreathing propulsion would
magically make space launch cheaper is nonsense -- LOX is much cheaper
than advanced airbreathing engines, and so are the tanks to put it in
and the extra thrust to carry it." - Henry Spencer
