SpaceX conducts test launch of its new Falcon 9 rocket from Cape Canaveral, Florida

SpaceX's newest generation of vehicles, the Falcon 9 rocket, lifts off on its inaugural test flight at 2:45 PM from Complex 40 at the Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, Florida on June 4, 2010. SpaceX plans for the Falcon 9 to become the workhorse for NASA's manned and unmanned programs to the International Space Station. SpaceX was awarded a $1.6 billion contract to provide NASA with twelve unmanned cargo supply missions. It hopes to be able to also support NASA with manned flight capability by 2015 following President Obama's direction to place the program in the hands of commercial providers.
