SpaceX launch of the Heavy Falcon was launched in Kennedy Space Center. The rocket went straight up and made a big gas bubble thing coming from below once it started to rise. Then, it shot right up real fast and made a neat jet of colorful exhaust. A CNN reporter said they heard a sonic boom just after it started doing that. It was the first ever rocket to return to earth in one piece. It was also became the first rocket to fly to space twice after the 2nd launch.
I’m shocked. We haven’t seen rockets for a while now, so just that space rockets have been seen in use again is surprising. Also, the fact that something so powerful, with some classifying it as the worlds most powerful rocket, can come cheaper than previous models, just really proves how impressively space exploration has evolved. And returning, that was mind-blowing!
I wonder, if Elon Musk intended this rocket to eventually take human tourists to the moon, but said the particular rocket wouldn’t be able to do the task originally given, will the same go for the next rocket they are making, the Big Falcon Rocket? And, why not send them in the Falcon Heavy, or a 2nd Falcon Heavy, it was a very successful launch and your car didn’t get damaged, neither did the dummy?
