Space travel of the future
When it comes to space exploration, especially in this day and age, the sky is the limit. While NASA, which is the federal government's space program, does its research, more private companies are blasting their way into the atmosphere. SpaceX CEO Elon Musk recently launched his Tesla Roadster into space on top of the first Falcon Heavy rocket. While SpaceX is the dominant player in the privatization of the space industry at the moment, business mogul Richard Branson has big plans, too. In just a few years, his spaceflight company, Virgin Galactic, is expected to make big moves.
