The rocket overshot its destination of Mars and is actually headed towards an asteroid belt. Lucchesi weighs in on the power of the rocket and its ability to advance the future of space exploration. The Falcon Heavy is a gamechanger because it's able to carry a large amount of cargo in its payload.
