I got really excited when I read this article: SpaceX Eyes November 30 Cargo Launch To Space Station
Apparently, they are breaking ground for a launch site at Vandenberg AFB, which is right near Santa Barbara. I'm really hoping that while I'm there, the launch site will be completed and I can go see a launch or two. I was usually envious of Floridians who got to go see the Cape Canaveral launches of the shuttles.
I am also hoping that the partial privatization of space flight will lead to better space flight and a manned mission to Mars before I die.
What do you all think?
