SpaceX 26 Flights 2021
A private company flown 26 space missions in 2021 and even before the year is over. SpaceX has just done that on 24th Nov 2021 and probably another 2 more missions coming soon. This goes to show that SpaceX is way ahead of the game, even without much government funding. So why is SpaceX so much ahead in the space launch business? Because Mr Musk has the technology to reuse his launch vehicle and no other organisation is able to do what he is doing. It would take a couple of years before any other organisation is capable of landing an orbital class rocket!
