SpaceX successfully launched it's Falcon 9 booster. If fully successful SpaceX could be one of the companies the country depends on to lift cargo and men to orbit. Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down on the successful Falcon 9 launch?

The Falcon was the easy part.

SpaceX has the hard part, the Dragon, left to do.

They've been working the ISS interfaces for a while now.

Having a multiplicity of potential visiting vehicles keep the ISS software people up to their ears in implementing new interfaces.
