Flagged as this is an old and very much out of date article.

Here is a video of flight 4 that was successful. (awesome to watch too)

Also, an update to the article which people might not have seen was that SpaceX was recently (less than a month ago) awarded the contract from NASA for resupply missions to the International Space Station.

I realise this is an older article, but today was the first time I'd seen it and I found it very interesting. Is it bad form to post older articles? (I realise this is Hacker News, but I was assuming it's more important that it be interesting than new...)

Thanks for the updates. That video was awesome.

I had not read the article, so I thank the original poster for it, even if it is "old". Well written, not too gonzo, classic wired.
