They've successfully launched and returned a cargo ship to the ISS. They've now successfully launched a geosynchronous satellite. Their Grasshopper test rocket is impressive, and by next year they'll have the world's heaviest payload lift capability. They are doing this at a lower cost than anybody else.

They are beginning to dominate the launch schedule, too.

They are even beating the Chinese on price and the Chinese can’t figure out how.
