On February 6, SpaceX's Elon Musk launched his largest rocket in the blue sky over Florida's space coast. On board was "Starman", a manikin attached to the Billionaire's red Tesla roadster.
A few minutes later, fans cheered as Musk outdid himself by nailing a simultaneous landing of the Falcon Heavy boosters. It was undoubtedly a turning point for the commercial space era.
Airlines were a little less enthusiastic. That day, 563 flights were delayed and 62 additional miles were added to flights in the southeastern United States, according to data from the Federal Aviation Administration released Tuesday by the Air Line Pilots Association or l & # 39; ALPA. The date was focused on Cape Canaveral, where Space Exploration Technologies Corp. of Jeff Bezos' Musk and Blue Origin base their stellar operations.
It is one of 22 active US launch sites, and a number of other locations including Brownsville, Texas. ; Watkins, Colorado; and Camden County, Georgia, are pursuing new space projects to take advantage of commercial space activities.
