SpaceX history: 13 of the biggest moments for Elon Musk's 20-year-old company

SpaceX hit a major milestone in 2020 when the company brought human spaceflight back to the US for the first time in years.

Later that year, NASA certified SpaceX's Falcon 9 and Crew Dragon human spaceflight system for crew missions to and from ISS – meaning the US would no longer have to rely solely on Russia's Soyuz rocket to transport US astronauts to and from the space station.Starship, which SpaceX is designing to one day build settlements on Mars, completed a suborbital test flight without exploding for the first time in May 2021.

With Starship, SpaceX aims to make the rocket's second stage reusable — something that it accomplished with Falcon 9's first stage. That would make the launch system fully reusable, which has never been done before. Now SpaceX is working to launch Starship with its giant Super Heavy booster, pushing the spacecraft into orbit for the first time. It's unclear when that landmark orbital test flight will happen. Christopher Sembroksi, Hayley Arceneaux, Jared Isaacman, and Sian Proctor experience zero-gravity in a plane while training to go to space with Musk's company.
