First Falcon Heavy Launch
The first launch of a Falcon Heavy is currently scheduled for late
this summer. According to Elon Musk, the test flight will be with two reflown Falcon 9 Cores (plus one new one) and they may attempt to recover the upper stage to prove full reusability, although he considers the odds of that succeeding on the first attempt to be low. -- "The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable man persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man." --George Bernard Shaw |
