SpaceX has released a demo of the future of flight, the Falcon Heavy Source:

SpaceX really looking forward to the launch of heavy rocket and stir up interest in this event in different ways. For example, the new animated movie, created by artists and designers showing the start and first minute of flight of the rocket. It is possible to see the blast-off, the separation and landing of boosters, which will be the first three stages of the Falcon 9 Full Thrust.

Elon Musk, posted a technical demo in Instagram, noted that the first launch is planned in November, although it is possible overlays, so the video is recommended to be taken as a perfect illustration of the test flight, which will take place in the event, if all goes well.

But even in case of failure experts SpaceX will be able to get a lot of valuable information. Because each rocket launch, albeit unsuccessful — the opportunity to learn something new, because while the rocket tried to take off, to judge it only on computer modeling and simulation, and it is not the best option.

According to the developers, the rocket, the Falcon Heavy will be able to withdraw to low earth orbit 63 tons of payload, and on Mars will be able to deliver nearly 17 tons.
