The Falcon Heavy may be a remarkable rocket, particularly after its successful maiden launch on Tuesday, but SpaceX has something more impressive on the horizon: the BFR. The BFR — officially the "Big Falcon Rocket," though at first the F stood for a much more crude word — will be a monster that SpaceX CEO and founder Elon Musk hopes will take humans to Mars. The BFR ship will include cabins, a galley and an entertainment area. SpaceX CEO Elon Musk has a reputation for missing deadlines, but says the BFR could be ready within the year. Musk said previously a Mars-ready BFR would have 40 cabins, with between two and six people in each.
