@elonmusk You should make Lego sets of the Falcon rockets.

I definitively support this idea. My kids are great spacex fans building their own rockets out of Lego bricks.

Hanging for the next
#falconheavy launch on 30th Nov (estimate). I see in the SpaceXNow app all launches are with the B5 rocket... so will there be more stage recoveries? All the B4’s are gone now correct? -
All flights from now on will be recoveries.
-
Thanks for the info! It’s nice to get a response without some form of ridicule!
-
Actually, not all have to be recoveries. A company could still pay for an expendable F9 or FH.
-
Ah so they have... how do you say “budget” or lightweight payload. Then a deluxe payload would require loss of a stage and therefor a higher cost of package?
-
Not really. Falcon 9 has an amount of payload mass it can deliver to a specific orbit while maintaining enough propellant to land. It also has an amount of payload mass it can deliver to a specific orbit while burning its propellant to depletion (i.e. no landing).
-
For payloads on a Falcon 9 that needs to burn to depletion, SpaceX now offers those flights the ability to launch on a fully recoverable Falcon Heavy so SpaceX can keep getting the boosters back. Back a costumer can request flight on a burn-to-depletion single-stick Falcon 9.
-
Hey can I ask if you know the difference between B4 and B5 engines? More about updates features etc? More efficiency?
