Les Américains commencent enfin à se rendre compte de leur
dépendance à la Russie pour envoyer des humains sur orbite avec les fusées Soyouz.
L'événement ne passe pas inaperçu ici
L’Ă©vĂ©nement SpaceX ne passe pas inaperçu en Floride. L’AmĂ©ricain moyen commence
Ă prendre conscience de l’importance du leadership US, qu’ils aimeraient bien
retrouver.
Par ce coup de maître astronautique, SpaceX ouvre donc concrètement
la voie au tourisme spatial. BientĂ´t, il suffira d’avoir un porte-monnaie bien
garni pour se rendre lĂ -haut. Bon, je m’y mets, je vais jouer Ă la loterie.
HISTORY : private ownership finally
the space
Recently, just before the launch of Dragon, an
employee at KSC was
wondering what we could well see interest coming off such
a « trite » rocket.
« There is nothing wonderful », he said. Yes, it's
true. Technically, that’s not so revolutionary. A spacecraft to
dock on the ISS, the
Europeans have done with ESA (ATV). The novelty is that it’s a private
compagny go at it, too. In other words, SpaceX became the
first organization funded
by itself succeed this challenge. And it must be
done. Any business can not be improvised space transporter. Any
compagny can not be improvised shuttle transporter.Therefore we
can consider taht technical prowess of SpaceX as historic.It's
like the adventure of airmail in the twenties. Without these
heroes then the air, we would not steal in heaven as we
do today.
Does it lack the Dragon capsule ? No, the KSC cleaned his rockets on tarmac for its 50th anniversary in early July. - Photo : rke |
SpaceX actually opens up the way to space tourism
Americans are finally starting to realize their
dependence on Russia for sending humans into orbit with Soyuz
rockets. The SpaceX event is not going unseen in Florida. The
average American is beginning to realize the importance of U.S.
leadership, they would like to find.
By this master gamble, SpaceX actually opens
up the way to space tourism. Soon, it will enough to have a well
stocked-wallet to get up above our heads. Well, I'll start,
I'll play the lottery.
