Elon Musk Fires World's most powerful rocket and a Tesla Roadster To Mars.

SpaceX's Falcon Heavy megarocket has finally blasted off from the launchpad at Cape Canaveral, carrying Elon Musk's cherry red Tesla Roadster on a journey to Mars.

Today's successful launch marked the maiden flight of what's now the most powerful operational rocket in the world.

Just over three minutes into the launch, the side boosters detached from the rocket and launch operators confirmed it was on the right trajectory.

The journey to Mars orbit will take about six months, with the module and the attached Roadster traversing roughly 140 million miles (225 million kilometres).

Now that the rocket and its payload have successfully made it through the ascent – a critical stage in which Musk himself has admitted it risked blowing up – the SpaceX boss says the sports car ‘will be in deep space for a billion years.’

A view inside the Roadster after today's launch showed one last look at the dummy, dubbed Starman, behind the wheel on its journey to Mars.

Weep for yourself. Elon Musk is not a government official, he's just an individual like you and me.

1st car in space, awesome Tesla marketing plus great heavy payload test for SpaceX

Yes he is, but he has an easy going enabling environment powered and supported by the government, he may not receive funds but then the government has his backing with all the necessary information and license to successfully achieve this.

But here what do we have? An insensitive government, Do you know how many talents have been eroded because of the type of government we have? My brother it is enough to weep for this nation...

And do we have an enabling environment to think about achieving sth like this besides the thoughts of how to survive, Fulani herdsmen, a business to do so as to live comfortably and host of other mundane stuffs ds nation has put us to. If there wasn't an effective working system in place, wld that have bn d next thoughts of Elon Musk?

Lots of Nigerians are scattered over the world achieving their dreams and breaking boundaries cuz their was a working system for them to do that.

If you can't think in that direction, you should have simply asked for more info instead of weeping all around.

I agree with this bro, no one can deny the multiplier effect of an enabling environment on both personal and corporate success. But there's still a lot we can do here that we have not started.

this is what reach people do with money, they break grounds not all these people with ill gotten wealth we have here that the only thing they invest on are useless hotels.
