In addition, the chapters describe SpaceX's emphasis on simplicity, low-cost, and reliability, and the methods the company employs to reduce its costs while speeding up decision-makingand delivery. Detailing the Falcon 1, Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy launch vehicles, the book shows how SpaceX is able to offer a full spectrum of light, medium, and heavy lift launch capabilities to its customers and how it is able to deliver spacecraft into any inclination and altitude, from low Earth orbit to geosynchronous orbit to planetary missions.
