Falcon 9/Heavy/Starship
April 24th, 2019 8:03 PM CDT
So somehow I haven't seen any discussion of this on the website, but has anyone been keeping up with recent developments at SpaceX? They finally launched the first commercial flight of the Falcon Heavy about a year after the test flight that launched the Tesla Roadster into space. They managed to recover all three rockets, including a sea landing.
Eventually they plan to cease production of all Falcon rockets and instead use Starship as a multi-purpose vehicle. This includes less than 1 hour flights to anywhere in the world. You could literally be in LA for breakfast, Sydney for lunch, and Stockholm for dinner if you wanted.
They are also planning to do their first Crew Dragon flight soon, where they will shuttle some astronauts to the ISS. Things are getting exciting!
