The idea of using an unpressurized cargo hold seems like a great way to save launch weight, but it makes the whole thing look so flimsy from the outside.

Someone else, believe this is bad design, I mean, I have a bad feeling about this "Dragon", may be it have rely advanced tech, but come on, the guys inside looks like don't have space, is like cheapest cinema and the other thing is where's the cargo area? May be is good for transport of personal but if they need take some parts for fix the ISS? In my personal opinion,they have must work more in the design and yes, looks like 60's, I hope they do better work if they want to replace the shuttles

Here's wishing everyone at Spacex all the best on your new Falcon 9 rocket which is now at the pad at cape kennedy. Good luck to you and everyone in the private space industry. You are now America's space program.

Letting private companies handle the routine orbital stuff would free up money for NASA to do what it does best; deep space exploration both manned and unmanned.
