So, I Placed a New Buy Order for Some SpaceX Stock...

I've long thought that when humans finally expand into space to stay, it would be the private sector, for the most part, that takes us there. There are incredible mineral resources as close as the asteroid belt, which (unlike resources found on a planet) don't have to be lifted out of a gravity well. Some of the moons of the gas giants, while still having that gravity well issue, have nearly-unlimited volatiles, like methane, and even water vapor.
There's a lot of money to be made in space, if we can just figure out how to send humans out there without having them, you know, die.
In my first major science-fiction epic, humanity has already expanded into the asteroid belt and to some of the Jovian satellites, when a French guy named Hiram Eugene Gellar invented the first faster-than-light (FTL) spaceship drive, which would be known as the Gellar Star Drive. It was a huge affair, and I admit I did some near-Star Trek-level handwaving about how it worked; the thing involved a huge mass tunnel, and something called "negative energy" to warp space in front of the ship, allowing for superluminal jumps.
Hiram Eugene Gellar didn't do that for the betterment of mankind, in this future I envisioned. He did it for personal gain. The first Gellar Drive starship was built on specs provided by Gellar, and he piloted it personally, along with his aide Edda Fauvier, to the Centauri system, where he confirmed the existence of two mineral-heavy but lifeless planets.
The Gellar Drive worked, and Gellar himself sold it to a private company called the Peebles Mining Corporation. Gellar took his massive boodle to the south of France, married Edda Fauvier, and retired to live in luxury. Peebles took the drive, immediately started improving it, and used it to develop mineral resources in nearby systems, eventually finding life-bearing planets.
If you want to see what happened next, well, read the books.
