Company SpaceX conducted the first fire tests of the central block of the super-heavy rocket Falcon Heavy. The video of the test was published on the company's Twitter page.

Tests took place in early May at the training ground in McGregor. Testing is recognized as successful.

The company plans to launch the first test launch of the missile at the end of 2017.

Earlier it was reported that when testing a SpaceX rocket in Florida during the test launch on September 1, an explosion occurred, followed by several more.

SpaceX several times managed to land the first stage of the Falcon 9 on a floating platform in the ocean and twice landed at the cosmodrome. The company was founded in 2002 by the former owner of PayPal electronic payment system Ilon Mask. She is a private developer of the carrier rocket series and commercial operator of space systems.
