HAWTHORNE, Calif. (AP) — Billionaire Elon Musk has taken the wraps off a new spacecraft designed to ferry up to seven astronauts to the International Space Station.
The unveiling of the cone-headed craft dubbed Dragon V2 occurred Thursday evening at the Southern California headquarters of Musk's company, SpaceX.
Musk calls the new spacecraft a big leap forward in technology.
SpaceX is one of several private companies competing to build "space taxis" for NASA to replace the retired space shuttle fleet. It previously flew four cargo missions to the space station, delivering food and supplies.

said at first inaugural ball, in a little room off to the side of the ball, full of repthuglicans, that the repukes would thwart anything initiated by the Obama administration. And democrats HAVE LET THEM DO THAT VERY THING for the last six fucking years!!!! Only, because of our(reid and Pelosi)timidity and yes cowardice, do we have ourselves to blame. 2014 elections are here, quit whining and gotv I'm sick of the non support by democrats(bluedogs) and the RW race bait machine(RW media) hurting all americans. And by the way, why no outrage at the benedict arnold 'bluedog' democrats? Nothing, nada, zero. We need to clean our house also. rant done.
Did you ever notice how much Elon Musk looks like Bob Dobbs?
