Beschreibung
With the launch of the Falcon 1 rocket in 2008, Elon Musk's SpaceX became the first private company to build a low-cost rocket that could reach orbit. Now Silicon Valley, not NASA or nation states, was suddenly cemented as the epicenter of the new Space Age. Start-ups and the wealthy investors behind them began to realize that the universe - ungoverned and infinite - was open for business. A momentous look at the private companies driving a revolutionary new economy in space.
