Falcon Heavy

the world's most powerful rocket will launch on Tuesday. If successful, it will usher in a new age of cheap(er) access to space for large scientific payloads. With FH, expect to see an increase in the number of launched space probes and landers.

Where would you like to send a new scientific mission the most? Asteroids? Europa? Titan?

didgeridoos and it explodes on the pad

If.

the pad is probably not going to be the failure location, if there is one. It's easy to model the vibrations etc right at launch; I'd be more worried around MaxQ where it is more difficult to determine how 3 F9 1st stages will cooperate in flight

Or it flies all the way to Japan and blows up your town

Good try nipponbro
