The Spin
Narrative A
SpaceX is accomplishing launch milestones not seen since the Soviet space program in the 1980s. It's remarkable how a private business has made so much progress. While there will be challenges to SpaceX meeting Musk’s aim of launching at least 100 rockets this year, so far the company has given no reason to doubt it.
Narrative B
What SpaceX and other private companies are accomplishing in the commercial space travel realm is exciting. However, more must be done to ensure that the explosion in private space ventures is regulated. International norms must be established to avoid conflict and overcrowding in orbit.
