SPACE X
First SpaceX superfighter flight scheduled for February 6
SpaceX has officially announced that the Falcon Heavy rocket will be launched for the first time next February 6th. The date will thus signal the first demonstration of strength of what will be the vehicle used by the company of Elon Musk to transport cargo to Space, and between the "abodes", Mars.
The launch will be made on platform 39A of the Kennedy Space Center, which is in the US state of Florida. The area has been remodeled to accommodate the company's rocket and Musk ensures that there is plenty of room for those who want to watch the take off.
This flight will only be a test of the capabilities of the Falcon Heavy which, over the past few months, has undergone several preparation procedures. However, it is not possible to predict the behavior of the rocket without it rising to the skies for a first demonstration. According to Musk, it is even possible that everything ends with an explosion of the ship. Still, says the entrepreneur, "the test will be a big step in consolidating the Falcon Heavy."
For this first flight, the goal is to place a Tesla Roadster in the orbit of Mars. A symbolic feat, which marks the achievements of Elon Musk's companies. And to make weight ...
This rocket model will be responsible for first carrying "infrastructure" and then driving the SpaceX spacecraft with humans to Mars, starting in 2022.
These "monsters" use the combined power of three Falcon 9 thrusters, being able to transport 63,500 kilograms out of orbit. The idea is that the nuclei of these rockets will be able to return to Earth, just like Falcon 9, to be reused.
