SpaceX has raised $1 billion from Google and Fidelity in a deal that values the spaceship manufacturer at about $10 billion.

 

The infusion announced Tuesday will give Google Inc. and Fidelity Investments a nearly 10 percent stake in SpaceX, a Hawthorne, California, company that employs more than 3,000 people.

Although privately held SpaceX didn't reveal any concrete plans, the money could help founder Elon Musk realize his hopes to fly people to Mars within the next 12 years and eventually build a city on the planet.

A space race between Elon Musk and Richard Branson could bring about some epic innovations.  

The sci-fi junkie in me is getting all lathered up!

Is Branson still pushing for space travel? I though a lot of investors were pulling out after the crash
