SpaceX is the only private company to ever reach earth orbit with their Falcon 1 rocket. This is the FULl 40 minute webcast from about T-10 minutes until well after SECO. We didn’t want to cut out the chorus of cheering after the SpaceX crew realized that they had just made history!

SpaceX had a rough day. After an initial abort on the launch-pad at T-0 seconds they were finally able to get the Falcon 1 rocket in the air only to have the first stage not properly jettison, which caused a total vehicle and cargo loss. No humans were aboard the craft. While this is certainly a disappointment for SpaceX I have no doubt that they will continue forging forward with Falcon 1, Falcon 9 and Dragon.
