It's a hurdle that may require design changes to the Falcon 9, WSJ argues, and could further delay the first launches of the Falcon 9 rocket with people on board.
|
|
Just two months into the year, SpaceX finally made good on its long held promise to launch the coveted Falcon Heavy — an upgraded version of the company's Falcon 9 rocket.
|
|
In 2011, for example, Musk said that SpaceX's Falcon Heavy rocket — a booster larger than the Falcon 9 that is in use today — would fly by the end of 2012.
|
|
The Falcon Heavy consists of three first-stage boosters like those used by SpaceX's successful Falcon 9 bound together like pan pipes, with a second stage on the central one.
|
