“Only the Saturn V moon rocket, last flown in 1973, delivered more payload to orbit,” said SpaceX.

Mass wise?

So..... fireworks tonight

 

[ScottulusMaximus]

Optimistic:

“I hope it makes it far enough away from the pad that it does not cause pad damage. I would consider even that a win.”

Likely to be a big bang.

It appears launch delayed to 19:20 UTC because of upper level wind shear.

Per @SpaceX posted at 18:57 CAT

 

[Brackshura]

Go @SpceX Hope for the best!

Anyone know if they will be playing space oddity in the background during the live stream?

On @SpaceX:

Continue to monitor the upper level wind shear. New T-0 is 3:35 p.m. EST, 20:45 UTC

Doesn't look like it's going happen tonight. They had a two-and-a-half hour launch window. And this puts it right on the edge

T-60 minutes until Falcon Heavy’s first test flight. Launch webcast will go live about 20 minutes before liftoff → spacex.com/webcast
