On the plus side, the flight of our first stage, with \nthe new Merlin 1C engine that will be used in Falcon 9, was picture perfect. \nUnfortunately, a problem occurred with stage separation, causing the stages \nto be held together. This is under investigation and I will send out a note \nas soon as we understand exactly what happened. \n\nThe most important message I’d like to send right now is that SpaceX will not \nskip a beat in execution going forward. We have flight four of Falcon 1 \nalmost ready for flight and flight five right behind that. I have also given \nthe go ahead to begin fabrication of flight six. Falcon 9 development will \nalso continue unabated, taking into account the lessons learned with Falcon \n1. We have made great progress this past week with the successful nine \nengine firing.\n\nAs a precautionary measure to guard against the possibility of flight 3 not \nreaching orbit, SpaceX recently accepted a significant investment. Combined \nwith our existing cash reserves, that ensures we will have more than \nsufficient funding on hand to continue launching Falcon 1 and develop Falcon \n9 and Dragon. There should be absolutely zero question that SpaceX will \nprevail in reaching orbit and demonstrating reliable space transport. For my \npart, I will never give up and I mean never. \n\nThanks for your hard work and now on to flight four.\n\n \n--Elon--\n\n", "attachments": [] }
