Falcon Heavy
updated less than an hour ago
SpaceX heavy-lift partially reusable orbital rocket
Falcon Heavy bolts three Falcon 9 cores together for SpaceX's heaviest lifts; its signature visual is the two side boosters peeling away after staging and touching down side by side in a synchronised landing. The 2018 demo flight sent Elon Musk's red Tesla Roadster on a path past Mars.
