"Which commercial space launch firm will successfully deliver cargo to the International Space Station first?" was the question posed the past month or so.
Spaceport readers give Hathorne, Calif-based SpaceX a nearly 50-50 chance of being the first commercial space launch transport to deliver cargo to the orbiting space station; while Dulles, Va-based Orbital Sciences Corporation gained a 2 in 5 chance of being the first. Slightly more than 1 in 10 said another commercial space launch carrier would be first. President Obama seems to be betting on SpaceX too - until at least - he visits Wallops Island, Va.
