The List: X Factor

Thursday, May 24, 2012 | 3:30 PM
This week, the first commercial company to attempt to send a spacecraft to the International Space Station began its mission. The company launched their Falcon 9 Rocket, carrying a Dragon spacecraft, into orbit. No longer is the Space Station exclusive to government-backed trips.

The company behind this mission is called Space Exploration Technologies, but they got by SpaceX for short. Yes, the company is called SpaceX! Their website is http://www.spacex.com/

Of course, we here at Racer X are well aware of the power of the X, as is anyone who watched the Speed Racer cartoons and saw the Racer X character on there (yes, we are aware of that). There’s a band called Racer X (yes, we are aware of that, too).

There’s a lot of darned Xs out there. So we’re running through a few of the ones we found for The List.

1. Racer X (us)

2. Racer X (Speed Racer)

3. Racer X (the band)

4. Space X
