SpaceX’s most powerful operational rocket soared to the skies once again for its sixth mission.

SpaceX launched its massive Falcon Heavy rocket for the sixth time ever on Sunday, April 30. Falcon Heavy lifted off from NASA’s Kennedy Space Center in Florida Sunday at 8:26 p.m. EDT for the ViaSat-3 Americas mission. It lifted three satellites to geostationary orbit.

Though it will eventually be overtaken by SpaceX’s Starship, Falcon Heavy is currently SpaceX’s largest and most powerful operational rocket.
