Looks like it was successful, just waiting on word of the core landing safely - or not - on the drone ship.
Musk is so baller. He just launched a sweet ride from his car company, on top of a rocket from his other company. There just isn't much that can compete. The only thing that would have made it more kick ... is if he had mounted his flamethrowers to the hood and went into space all death race 2000 style.Went off without a hitch - that was amazing!
That looks eerily like Huntsville's Space and Rocket Center...And on the subject of that Saturn V rocket - they have one on display at the rocket and space museum at Cape Canaveral, in case you are in the area - worth checking out - very impressive!
Wonder why...That looks eerily like Huntsville's Space and Rocket Center...
Thanks for the update - that sucks about the center booster but they will get that resolved.Using Musk's twitter numbers, the final burn should be happening any time now.
Also, just read that the middle booster was lost during landing: The middle booster of SpaceX’s Falcon Heavy rocket failed to land on its drone ship
the overall goal was to get to deep space and they did that well. This is why you do tests.I don't get it, every one is having fun or joking but, if the goal was to orbit Mars and now you have missed, isn't that a failed mission? If this was a manned mission they'd be in deep doodoo. I don't ever remember NASA sending a probe to Mars and completely missing the planet. They all may have not survived the landing but they all hit the planet.
