The company that made history as the only private entity to return a spacecraft from low-Earth orbit and later dock with the International Space Station, SpaceX, has just closed a substantial Series f funding round, bringing in $1.0B.
Founded in 2002 by Elon Musk, SpaceX designs, manufactures, and launches advanced rockets and spacecraft with the ultimate goal of revolutionizing space transportation and making life multiplanetary. Its Dragon spacecraft continues to provide regular cargo resupply missions for NASA, building on a track record of technically challenging feats previously accomplished only by governments.
