Successful Launch of World's Most Powerful Rocket


Source:  Falcon Heavy Lift-Off

Took Off With the Force of 18 Passenger Jets

SpaceX, owned by billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk, sent the world's most powerful rocket, SpaceX's Falcon Heavy, on its first commercial mission. The launch took place late this week in Florida.  It served as an important demonstration of SpaceX's capabilities in the crowded field of competitors chasing lucrative military launch contracts.

Perfect Mission Accomplished
The rocket took off with the force of 18 passenger jets.  All 27 of its engines fired up at liftoff - 9 engines per booster.  The rocket delivered a communications satellite into orbit for a paying customer, Arabsat of Saudi Arabia.  Remarkably, all three rocket boosters landed safety back on earth.
