There are a lot of alien and UFO footage on YouTube. So it is always good to see a scary rocket that may be heading for Mars one day. New footage of a SpaceX rocket cruising down Main Street America may be intimidating to some YouTube viewers. Simply because it is footage of a real rocket that will go to space. And not a bizarre flying saucer that is blowing up volcanoes with laser beams. The footage of the SpaceX rocket was posted by USLaunchReport. Their YouTube channel has a little more than 3,500 subscribers. But it’s hard to believe that they don’t have more. Maybe if they edited in a green eggplant headed alien riding a top of the SpaceX rocket, they would have more views and subscribers.
YouTube Video Breakdown
The footage of the SpaceX rocket is cut up to show different aspects of the rocket. The YouTube channel USLaunchReport dis a fairly good job. They noted that the footage was simply for rocket fans. The YouTube video shows the JCSAT14 or Booster #3, according to the video. It is pretty amazing to see a rocket that will end up on space. Not your everyday YouTube video. The USLaunchReport is also dedicated to bringing disabled U.S. Veterans to launches. Whether SpaceX or NASA. They are a nonprofit that has god intentions. They accept donations. Many may be applauding their efforts. It is too bad they don’t have more subscribers. Keep up the good work.
The Supercool Falcon 9
If there were ever a supreme piece of rocket tech to launch you into space, it would be the falcon 9. And the Dragon spacecraft, since they are both pretty amazing. China and Russia may even be jealous. The Falcon 9 is famous for its delivery of the Dragon in 2012. The Falcon 9 is a SpaceX project that was conceived with the help and funding of NASA. It is over a million pounds and has an estimated 9,000 pound Mars payload capability. This could come in handy for the upcoming Mars missions in 2020. The Falcon 9 and Dragon spacecraft may be the first to put humans on the Red Planet.
SpaceX Plans to Do What?
In an effort to insert its supreme space dominance, SpaceX aims to launch a rocket into space every few weeks or so. It is a lofty mission. But Elon Musk seems to be up for it. The private space company that is the favorite for a Mars manned mission plans to launch 18 rockets by the end of 2016. Surely keeping the Falcon 9 fleet busy. This will also include the first launch of the Falcon Heavy rocket as well. Is there anything SpaceX can’t do?
