Don't miss the amazing moment when the two side cores detached from the Falcon Heavy and landed next to each other, perfectly synchronized. 

The SpaceX "Falcon Heavy" has the ability to lift into orbit nearly 64 metric tons (141,000 lb) - a mass greater than a 737 jetliner loaded with passengers, crew, luggage and fuel.  Falcon Heavy's first stage is composed of three Falcon 9 nine-engine cores whose 27 Merlin engines together generate more than 5 million pounds of thrust at liftoff, equal to approximately eighteen 747 aircraft.  Falcon Heavy can lift more than twice the payload of the next closest operational vehicle, at one-third the cost.  Following liftoff, the two side boosters separate from the center core and return to landing sites for future re-use.  The center core, traveling further and faster than the side boosters, also returns for reuse, but lands on a drone ship located in the Atlantic Ocean.  At maximum velocity the Tesla Roadster electric car travels 11 km/second (7 miles/second) or 39600 km/h (25000 mph).

The Tesla Roadster will go into an orbit past Mars and around the Sun.  "It will be in deep space for a billion years or so," according to Elon Musk.
