Space Exploration Technologies (SpaceX) was founded in June 2002 by successful internet entrepreneur Elon  Musk with the goal of revolutionizing access to space by increasing the reliability and reducing the cost of space access ultimately by a factor of ten. 

With the Falcon 1, Falcon 5 and Falcon 9 launch vehicles, SpaceX is able to offer light, medium and heavy lift capabilities. The Falcon family of launch vehicles is able to deliver spacecraft into any inclination and altitude, from low Earth orbit to geosynchronous orbit to planetary missions.   Our medium and heavy lift vehicles, Falcon 5 and Falcon 9, are the only US launch vehicles with true engine out reliability.

Although drawing upon a rich history of prior launch vehicle and engine programs, SpaceX is privately developing the Falcon family of rockets from the ground up, including main and upper stage engines, the cryogenic tank structure, avionics, guidance & control software and ground support equipment.
