SpaceX made significant progresses in the last two years. Falcon 9 Rocket is attracting more and more commercial launching order, heavy-lift Falcon has launched successfully twice and the company has won the human spaceflight contract from NASA. It is now the first private company that has the ability to send human into space in the history. It also started its plan to build space Internet, so called construction of space and earth integrated network.
However, there are many setbacks before the successes.
In the morning of April 21st, 2019 (UTC +9), a lot of orange smoke come up from the test field of Space X in Kennedy, USA. The spokesman of SpaceX declared that the accident was caused by the malfunction of the launch pad. The influences of this accident still cannot be assessed. The space-earth Internet project of SpaceX must be successful in the future, but success will come with price.
As the indispensable “Last Kilometer” Solution of the construction of space and earth integrated network, MeshBox is never afraid of challenges and difficulties, just like SpaceX!
