About
Through groundbreaking technology, we are revolutionizing space exploration and transportation at SpaceX. Founded in 2002 by Elon Musk, SpaceX is dedicated to advancing human life by making it possible for people to live on other planets. We design, manufacture and launch the world’s most advanced rockets and spacecraft, achieving remarkable milestones such as being the first private company to successfully return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit in December 2010. Our Dragon spacecraft made history by attaching to the International Space Station in May 2012, completing a series of cargo resupply missions for NASA. Our pioneering efforts extend to developing the Starship system with the aim of making space travel accessible to both people and cargo. We are also enhancing global internet service with our Starlink satellite constellation, connecting millions of people around the world. Innovation drives us, and as the only provider with an orbital-class reusable rocket, we provide competitive launch services for both commercial and government customers. At SpaceX, we strive to increase access to space, working towards a future where humanity can inhabit other worlds.
