Elon Musk
 [He'd better be, because the new space race already is under way and competition is shaping up as fierce. Rutan's chief rival may ultimately be Elon Musk. A former Internet mogul who in 2002 sold his online payment company, PayPal, to eBay for $1.5 billion in stock, Musk now runs SpaceX in El Segundo, Calif., which is developing an orbital space vehicle. Musk notes that making it into orbit requires going eight times faster and producing 65 times more rocket energy than a suborbital vehicle like SpaceShipOne. Musk has already put more than $50 million into SpaceX and says he is prepared to invest $50 million more. He expects it to take at least five years to get passengers into orbit. In the meantime, SpaceX is generating revenue by booking orders to launch satellites; its first such launch is scheduled for January.] Our earned revenue will be $35 million after a little more than two years of operation, ... By comparison, the X-Prize was a one-off of $10 million, and it took Burt something like five years to do it. |
| [What Space X ultimately contributes to space travel might please the government in other ways.] One of the significant innovations of Falcon V is that because it's got five engines on the main stage, it can actually lose an engine and reach orbit safely, ... If the space shuttle were to lose one of its solid rocket boosters the people on the shuttle would be doomed. |
| A lot depends on our first launch, ... Even though I really want to launch as soon as possible, I don't want to take any chances. I'd rather be late than sorry. |
| After analyzing data from the static fire countdown, we decided to postpone the launch. The vehicle is being lowered for further investigation. |
| Consistent with our policy, we must be 100 percent green for launch with no outstanding concerns whatsoever. It is not just a matter of repairing the damage, but also understanding at a fundamental level how to ensure it never happens again. |
| Falcon was executing perfectly on all fronts until fire impaired the first-stage pneumatic system. |
| I cannot predict exactly when the next flight will take place, as that depends on the findings of this investigation and ensuring that our next customer is comfortable that all reasonable steps have been taken to ensure reliability. However, I would hope that the next launch occurs in less than six months. |
| I don't want to say specific numbers. But I've certainly spent more than I expected to spend, |
| I know for a fact that there are more than a half-a-dozen customers...not that they will sign up but they'll strongly consider signing up and probably will sign up at some point, even if it's not immediately. |
| I think I can say with confidence that we've left no stone unturned. We've made no shortcuts in development. We've done everything we can. |
| I'm very pro-environment, but let's figure out how to do it better and not jump through a dozen hoops to achieve what is obvious in the first place. There should be a categorical exclusion [for Falcon] just like airplanes that use non-toxic propellants. That would be a huge improvement, |
| In the absence of having NASA as a customer, the amount of money that we'd spend on manned spacecraft is relatively small. |
| is analogous to building part of an airplane in a factory and part of the airplane on the runway. You can imagine that's a pretty expensive way to split the construction so the fact that we can just do the entire integrated rocket, transport it as a single unit, that definitely reduces costs. |
| It is despairing to consider that the cost and reliability of access to space have barely changed since the Apollo era over three decades ago. Yet in virtually every other field of technology, we have made great strides in reducing cost and increasing capability, |
| It's been 3 1/2 years, almost, of very difficult development and we're finally at the stage where we are able to launch and we feel we've done everything we possibly can to ensure that it's a reliable launch. |
