Hey eveyone, 

 

Did anyone catch the launch of Elon Musk's launch of the new heavy payload Falcon rocket last night? The launch was the first test of the rocket which can carry an impressive payload of 64 tons! This is twice the capacity of existing launch vehicles. Most impressively the 3 boosters returned to earth and 2 of the 3 managed to land! Elon Musk even sent his car into orbit around the Sun laughing

The success of the launch has a lot of potential for future space exploration due the the much heaver and larger payloads that can be sent into space in one go!

What do you guys think about the launch? A great step forward or was it a vanity project for a billionaire?

@Martin-O2Kim Wrong Un makes up his own rules and legal system... so we can't apply the same rules to him tongue_winking

It may not be legal @Martin-O2 but the world would be a far safer place if Kim Wrong-Un and Trump were orbiting the sun. Not sure how safe the sun would be though - all that hot air (and I don't mean from the sun 🤣🤣)
