The time has come! SpaceX has finally revealed images of the Falcon Heavy. Will Goodman, Managing Editor at Rockets are Cool, joins Cheddar to discuss what January looks like for the aerospace company.
The Falcon Heavy has 50% less thrust than the Saturn V, which brought astronauts to the moon, but will have much more power. It will run on 92% force instead of 100%, so the landing of its three rockets will hopefully be smooth. Goodman says it will be like watching Cirque du Soleil show.
Plus, the race to get a man into space could be approaching the finish line. Blue Origin, Jeff Bezos' aerospace company, announced it will send a man to space in the next year and a half. Goodman says that will most likely not happen in the allotted timeframe, but does say that 2018 will be a big year for the Elon Musk-Jeff Bezos-Richard Branson competition.
