Elon Musk and his company SpaceX are planning the future of the human race. Mr. Musk has planned to get humans to Mars by 2030 and has planned to get regular missions into space commercialized. He has created a booster which is reusable and launches the capsule into a higher altitude to get to space. With the reusable booster, which lands by itself, he and many other people will save millions of dollars.

SpaceX has three main vehicles the Dragon, the Falcon 9, and the Falcon Heavy. Each vehicle has a different payload cache. The Dragon is used to get the astronauts into space. The Falcon 9 is used for resupplying the International Space Station (ISS). And the Falcon Heavy brings up new parts for the ISS and other satellites.

The missions of these launches have been a great success and can mean commercial space flights to Mars is in our near future. SpaceX has already set up plans for deep space missions and setting up bases on Titan and Mars. It is possible by 2050, the human race will be a lot like Star Trek with warp theory and contact with alien worlds. With the advancements in our current technology we should see some major advancements in the space and sea travel. The fact space travel is going to be “cheap” (meaning less than current prices of a trip to space) it just shows us the advancements and the ways we are progressing as a race.
