#SpaceSaturday: The first #Falcon 9 #Heavy #rocket launch from Kennedy Space Center’s LC-39A.
In this shot, all three #booster #cores of the rocket are clearly visible, along with the hot exhaust of the 27 #Merlin-1D #rocketengines.
The Falcon 9 Heavy became the most powerful launch vehicle in most categories once it became operational.

#SpaceSaturdary: The first #SpaceX #Falcon9 #Heavy #rocket launched from LC-39A at Kennedy Space Center. Crowds gathered across the #SpaceCoast to watch, including at Playalinda Beach.
In this #photograph, the rocket has risen above a hill, covered with eager viewers, while the three-cored rocket rising on three, firey exhaust plumes, and smoke billowing off to the left.
The views (and Fox, the #photographer) had waited hours in the hot Sun to see this. The #joy in the crowd is #palpable. One person has thrown their arms in the air, celebrating the rocket’s victory.
This #Falcon9Heavy carried an electric vehicle mounted on its upper stage as a test payload.
There is a sea grape bush in the foreground on the left.
