SpaceX Falcon Heavy

HOV lane is way faster? And I think it was a turbo.

Two words: Ludicrous Mode

While the Falcon Heavy launch is great, they are already moving on to the next payload lifter...the BFR (Big Falcon Rocket...yeah, it will be called something different by most). It will have 5 times the lift of the Falcon Heavy and likely would be the boost needed to get humans and their cargo to Mars.

Huge feat to land those two. Even 20-30 ft isn't a problem. The majority of the mission was a huge success. The 300 mph crash landing part obliterating the booster is a problem. Granted I know it's a drone ship but what if it wasn't off by 20-30 feet. It's a pretty big oops that isn't being talked about.

I know many of the goals were impressive and achieved. They foreshadowed this oops in media coverage. That alone is very impressive too.

It's not as if SpaceX has shied away from their failures

I didn't see the official spacex broadcast posted. Imagine being an employee there watching this!
