Re: Long live marketing

It's worth pointing out that Falcon Heavy isn't just designed for LEO.

Neither was Saturn V...

Saturn V could carry 140 tons, but couldn't carry it very far.

Both being LEO figures, Saturn V could lift 140 tonnes precisely as far as Falcon Heavy is designed to lift 64 tonnes.
