Cathie Wood Reacts To SpaceX Milestone
Wood quoted a post by Musk on Sunday with a single word replying, "Wild!" after he posted about SpaceX's successful launch. SpaceX says the mission includes cubesats, microsats, hosted payloads, a reentry vehicle and orbital transfer vehicles carrying some of the payloads.
Musk wrote that the Falcon 9 used for the mission can carry about 20 tons to orbit even with a reusable booster and fairing, adding that this makes it a "heavy" class rocket by conventional standards.
