SpaceX's new 180-foot tall rocket, the Falcon 9, is standing on a launch pad at Cape Kennedy, awaiting liftoff. Tests remain to be conducted before that happens, but the flight might take place in or before May.
The Falcon 9 is designed to be the workhorse launcher of SpaceX. After the space shuttle is retired, Falcon 9 will deliver the cargo ship, Dragon, on its resupply missions to ISS.
