SpaceX succesfully made history by launching it’s Falcon 1 rocket into Earth’s orbit. This places Falcon 1 squarely in the books as the first privately developed launch vehicle to reach orbit from the ground.

Don’t break out your spacesuit just yet. But this really is history in the making here. If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to go up into space… here’s your chance. Video from the rocket’s body shows an almost flawless launch.

Simply amazing. Congratulations are in order for the SpaceX team! Fantastic work, everyone!
