> I firmly believe that SpaceX is the best chance humanity currently has at achieving space travel for the general population.

No. Although they're technically impressive, they have spent defense contractor amounts of money to get where they are today. There's almost no chance that this will help the general population get into space, except perhaps by testing the regulatory system.

Check out XCor, Masten, Armadillo, Scaled Composites if you're interested in personal access to space.

> hey are one of the few companies I can get honestly excited about these days.

Agreed.
