Our new heavy-lift launch vehicle, Eagle Heavy, is to debut in a few days. Launch is currently slated for May 15. However, we feel that launching a perfectly good rocket with no payload or just a mass simulator is a waste. Just as Elon Musk sent his very own Tesla Roadster to Mars on Falcon Heavy’s first flight back in 2018, we want a payload for Eagle Heavy’s first flight that is interesting, out of the ordinary, and maybe even a little funny. The payload can be an actual functioning satellite or spacecraft, or perhaps more of a memorial, time capsule, or even something that isn’t ever meant to be sent into space! Just, make sure if it is the latter that the payload reflects human engineering, exploration, or technological development, or even just space itself. Remember though that this is a test flight, so while there are no launch fees, 100% success is not guaranteed. The customer is the decider of where their payload is sent to, be it anywhere from LEO to Mars, to beyond the edge of the solar system itself.
Specifications for Eagle Heavy are as follows:
Payload Fairing Height: 50ft
Payload Fairing Diameter: 18ft
Launch Vehicle Payload to LEO: 112,500lbs
If a different destination is needed for your payload, refer to the comments below.
We look forward to collaborating with you on this project future customer!
T-2:00:00 till launch! Here we go! Luna or Bust!
