ALISO VIEJO, Calif. — November 15, 2005

2Advanced.net (http://www.2advanced.net), a leading web hosting solutions provider, today announced it will host the website of SpaceX (http://www.SpaceX.com), a California-based developer of space launch vehicles. 2Advanced.net will create a customized hosting solution to power the SpaceX website and manage its increasing traffic loads.

"With our maiden voyage less than a month away, we needed a reliable, secure hosting provider," said Elon Musk, Chief Executive Officer for SpaceX. "After 2Advanced Studios developed our website, we knew they had the team, technology, and customer service that our company needs and desires."

SpaceX is a privately owned company founded in 2002 by Musk, co-founder of PayPal, the world's leading electronic payment system. Musk created the company with the hope of assisting humanity in becoming a space faring nation, with aims to increase the reliability and reduce the cost of access to space by a factor of ten. Later this fall, the company will launch its premiere mission when the Falcon 1 takes off from the SpaceX launch site in Kwajalein.

A few of SpaceX's customers include the U.S. Defense Department, U.S. Air Force and U.S. government. SpaceX also boasts an agreement with NASA to work cooperatively to develop and transfer technology in pursuit of cost effective human spaceflight systems.

With government ties and ground-breaking research and technology, SpaceX clearly needs a rock solid platform and tight security on its server. Therefore, 2Advanced.net was a clear and simple choice being one of the few hosting companies in the industry that can tout a completely on-site infrastructure, as well as a next generation network platform.

"We are pleased that SpaceX has chosen 2Advanced.net to host their corporate website," said Thomas Anthony, Director of Business Development for 2Advanced.net. "SpaceX has been a satisfied customer of 2Advanced Studios since 2002 and when they found out that we also offered web hosting, they were more than happy to relocate their website to our datacenter."

In today's complex arena of technology service providers, 2Advanced.net has forged an entirely new vision for what hosting services should be. The combination of unparalleled technical precision, flexible server configurations and an enduring commitment to provide world-class customer service is a challenge seldom met in the hosting arena. In response, 2Advanced.net has amassed a team of seasoned industry experts to design and deliver a superior next generation network platform built from the latest in Cisco™ high-speed data communications equipment and dependable IBM™ server class systems.
