As the second to last space shuttle cleared the launch tower at Kennedy Space Center, more are discussing closing the multi-year "GAP" in human spaceflight with THE AMERICAN PRIVATE SECTOR.
Beyond the taxi rides offered NASA astronauts by the Russian space agency at nearly 60-million each, new opportunities for private citizens and NASA astronauts are emerging in the commercial space launch industry. While many see the space "GAP" lasting up to five years, Elon Musk believes he can close it within about 36-to-42 months, if authorized by NASA and the FAA to do so.
DENNIS TITO, first private cosmonaut, discussed the prospects of a profitable business in commercial space launch with a Bloomberg TV reporter, noting that RICHARD BRANSON and Elon Musk are space business standouts to build new American-made space vehicles, [embedded video hotlinks].
