This is what transporting a 90ton rocket actually looks like

    1. I have to ask:
      How does this thing cross bridges?
      Looks like it takes two lanes.
      Is it the weight distribution to the wheels?

    2. That was a fun exercise in grasping large numbers. My my initial reaction when the gif started was, “Really? 90 tons in that enclosed trailer being pulled by a pickup truck?”

    3. Crazy to think the biggest land dinosaur to have ever existed (that we know of) weighed up to 70 tons. And that blue whales weigh up to 200 tons.

    4. It’s only half of the rocket too! This is just the booster portion! The upper stage is almost as big and sits atop this

    5. They’d get to their destination a lot quicker if they’d light just one of those little boosters.
