SpaceX Launch

The SpaceX just launched a rocket called Falcon Heavy, on Tuesday, February 7, 2018. It was really exciting because it was the first ever rocket to be previously used and cargo capsule on the same mission. That proved that rockets can be successfully reused. Also, the rocket was also able to land. That is not something that happens much. The launch will be reducing the price of launches. That will help space exploration because the rockets are almost at an affordable price. If rockets are more affordable there will be more going into space.

I feel that the the Falcon Heavy is incredible. It is the worlds most powerful rocket! Also SpaceX is always thinking of new ways to improve and make new and old rockets. That is important because rockets will be more helpful to scientists and maybe humans can even go in them. That would be a big improvement from where spaceX is now.

I’m still wondering how the creators of Falcon Heavy came up with these exact ideas. Did they have to make a lot of choices? Was it easy? Did they have something in mind they were thinking about doing? In the beginnig of the creating how long did they think it would take them? I’m also wondering how they thought of the idea to put a Tesla in the rocket?
