This rocket launches are quite dramatic, it becomes almost totally engulfed in flames for a second, wow.

But unfortunately it have to wait another 2 years to official launch into space. But In that time Russia and China is nearly cover the entire satellite network.

@arias1772 Delta IV Heavy has been mentioned most, to my experience, as the vehicle for the first launches of the Orion (MPCV). Atlas V is designated for Dream Chaser, Falcon 9 for the Dragon.
There are two possibilities for a new US made Atlas-like (kerosine-lox) rocket:
Obama wants an advanced RP-1 engine to be used in a heavy-lift cluster.
SpaceX has proposed a Merlin 2 engine.
My preference is for a Dream Chaser on a new RP-1 engine or a D IV-H.
Realistically, Dragon-Falcon is in the lead.

@miniplus I could have sworn i replied to this. I am biased to DIV Heavy because it is all american unlike Atlas V that has imported engines. looks like Atlas V has a really good chance as of today though. I dont think Spacex is ready for manned flight. they do not have enough experience. they could be a good resupply launch vehicle though. we are nearing almost another year since i last asked, so i must ask again, what are your thoughts now?
