Falcon Heavy has proven to be able to fly. Now the missile can begin to do its real job: sending satellites and other loads into orbit - why not even people.
After years of delays and deadlines, SpaceX was finally ready to send its Falcon Heavy missile into orbit.
And around 15:45 am, according to American time, the world's most powerful rockets left the Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
The big rocket from Elon Musk's private company will be launched for the first time and aims to make space flight cheaper and easier.
According to foreign media, followed by the Telegraph, about two and a half minutes after the launch, the two propulsion propellers on the rocket broke off and headed back to Earth.
Meanwhile, thousands of trackers of the event could be heard chanting through SpaceX's flight.
The rocket was built by billionaire SpaceX, executive director of Tesla, Elon Musk. And as the foreign media writes, the Telegraph conveyed, it is already expected to carry three powerful satellites of telecommunications in orbit. According to foreign media , The US Air Force also plans to use a Falcon Heavy to launch a cargo called STP-2, which will include some predictive weather satellites later this year.
Meanwhile the SpaceX manufacturing company also said in early 2017 that two space tourists have put up a deposit to ride a Falcon Heavy for a trip around the moon. So he's expected to send people to space - so, as stated in a message, "start saving now."
