TechCrunch reports, “Elon Musk just renamed SpaceX’s Big F** Rocket.” How about booking a seat?
BFR, the monster rocket that will cost SpaceX roughly $5 billion to develop, has a new name.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk tweeted late Monday night that he has renamed the company’s largest (and yet to be built) BFR rocket to Starship. Or more precisely, the spaceship portion will be called Starship. The rocket booster used to propel Starship from Earth’s gravitational grasp will be called Super Heavy.
Me. I’ll pass on a chance for a seat on Elon’s BFR – Big ‘Effing Rocket, since I’m never an ‘early adopter’, and since I seen pictures of how he came to design the ‘effing thing.
