This launch , in my eyes, is super important to commercial space . Space X has gone from launching big rockets with the aid of desktop computers and hot pockets to grabbing the imagination of big investors.

The world has shifted their gaze at Space X with the Falcon 9 . With a successful launch . Space X will reveal the path for other investors and show them that commercial space is here and here to stay .

The Russian scientific project Mars-500

The Russian scientific institute that started the Mars-500 simulation of a manned mission to the Red Planet has launched an interactive website on the experiment in cooperation with Google.

The new website, created by Google and the Moscow Institute of Medical and Biological Problems, carries a wealth of information about the 520-day experiment and about the planet itself.

The logbook is based on Google Blogger platform and is fully devoted to the Mars-500 project.

Google said in a statement that the site (http://mars500main.appspot.com/#en) would allow visitors to "experience what the flight to Mars is like" and let them explore the Red Planet.
