The day before the launch, as Mr. Mask said, "All other rockets will be game over", the achievement of launching a large and economical rocket is extremely important for SpaceX, There is a high possibility of taking over many projects such as the launch of American military satellites, launch of planet exploration robots such as Mars and Jupiter, and other satellites, and it is expected that it will bring enormous profits.
