I saw it, and it was impressive.

As for commercial human space flight, I wonder if Orbital will be able to build something like the Soyuz rocket in the next 10 years?

Orbital Sciences Corporation

The Soyuz spacecraft

I would think that having NASA and the Air Force help private companies develop cheaper access to space, while still being safe, would be a good thing.
