Can we talk about space travel?
What types of vehicles are companies currently developing and using?
What are the current short and long term goals of said companies?
I'm particularly interested in seeing what SpaceX is capable of in the coming years. They successfully landed their 6th Falcon 9 1st stage last night (the 4th to land on a droneship). Their current schedule aims to launch a 'used' rocket as well as Falcon Heavy for the first time this fall, test the in-flight abort system and life support systems of Crew Dragon early next year followed by the first manned mission to the ISS by summer of next year.
