Falcon Heavy Test Flight LIVE

Can someone plot that in KSP for me? Rather see it in relation to Duna.

Also, I imagine 14:48 of this video is what happened to the center stage if only one booster was firing without enough thrust to trim speed:

Yup, looks like they were wrong and it didnā€™t land indeed.
Oh well, even with the failed landing itā€™s still a huge success.

Typical Elon style. xD

Thatā€™s a shame the core didnā€™t make it. 2/3 though is a great success and successful launch.

Hopefully thereā€™s lessons learnt that will stop that core failure next time.

The launch pad/landing pad survived, the drone ship survived mostly. The roadster survived. ā€¦ plenty could have gone wrong, but went well.

Yeah, same canā€™t be said for the Antares launch a few years ago:

Did the intro to the 1981 animated movie Heavy Metal just become real?

I wonder if their simulation lab has done any Kerbal-style scenarios with like 32 boosters during off hours.

I hope that car can send pictures back for a long time.

Come to think of it, that Tesla is doing 15000+ MPH, making it the fastest car ever.

Also, what if thatā€™s not just a dummy in there? Sure would be one hell of an original way to get rid of a body.

Tesla should build a human copy robot with advanced ai and dump it on mars or the moon, just to see how and what it would do preferrably with some heavy battery power to get it started

Now all it needs to do is crash into Mars to make a land-speed record.

ā€œHello? Iā€™ve had a bit of a tumbleā€

But actually, Scott Manley explored the subject of martian winds:


Fastest car ever :slight_smile:

One of the best videos there is for showing just how impressive the landing of the boosters was.
Maybe even better then the live feed.

The lesson is to put more fuel in the thing as that is what i was told was the problem.
