Have you ever wanted to visit Mars? What would you ride over there? Well you can hop up aboard the SpaceX Falcon Heavy Concept!

The SpaceX Falcon Heavy is a rocket that can store power and people enough for a
round trip to Mars. The rocket also known as the Falcon 9 Heavy or simply Falcon 9 is a super heavy lift space launch vehicle manufactured by SpaceX. The idea of this spaceship was first created on early 2016. It will take $90 million to launch one Falcon 9 Heavy. The rocket has 27 engines and 9 engines in each core. It will have 1 main rocket and 2 side rockets for a boost. It will be 70 meters tall and 12.2 meters wide. The weight of this rocket payload to Mars is 13600 kg or 29,980 lb. That is equivalent to the amount of all storage in a 737 passenger airliner-complete with passengers, luggage, and gasoline-all the way to orbit. This rocket can be reusable because of the 2 booster legs.

There are 2 stages for the rocket to launch. Stage 1 will be the launch. It will thrust for
about 4 minutes and will stop(to be exact, about 397 seconds). If it is built, then it will be the world’s most powerful rocket. It will blast off more than 5.13 million pounds of thrust. It will then break apart the boosters and blast off at full thrust. In the second stage, it will slow down to its destination and delivers the rocket payload. It can do this multiple times including the lower part of Earth. It then thrusts off back to Earth and lands safely back with the 2 thrusters and the main rocket, all parts not damaged. The first launch will be in December 2016.

In conclusion the Falcon 9 is an amazing rocket that can deliver a lot of payload and
sometimes can be used to travel to Pluto and under. Basically, anywhere in the solar system. Also, if you ever think of going, maybe someday, you can be an astronaut and ride on a SpaceX rocket!
