Space X Falcon Heavy Rocket loaded with several satellites

in spacetravel •  7 years ago 

The scheduled launch date finally decided, which is on 6th Feb.

Elon Musk, president of the Tesla Roadster the loading as a load, 27 pieces of the huge engine SpaceX with the Falcon Heavy rocket.

Falcon Heavy intends to fly from the launch pad of 39 A which flew Apollo at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex on February 6.

Saturn V, which NASA made in the 1970s, seems to have been able to skip the load 2.5 times the weight of Falcon Heavy. However, Falcon Heavy is now the world's largest rocket. If this is successful, it will be a major step forward for mankind to enter the Mars.

By the way, the first stage Merlin engine is reusable, which is something that could not be done with the technological capabilities of the 1970s.

According to Money CNN, rocket seems to fly variously besides roadster. They are the communication satellites made by Arab Sat of Arab, Inmarsat of England, Viasat of California, the load of the American Air Force "STP - 2", and satellite for space travel around the moon.

The Verge, SpaceX seems to fight Falcon Heavy in 2013 or 2014. However, there are a lot of tasks, such as a number of tests and examination of the launch pad, post-launch ale koree and reuse technology back to the ground, the plan was extended until 2018.

But Mars migration is the first step of the dream of mankind, it came in front of bare eyes.
