The Heavy Falcon is meant to go to Mars, and its launch was a success. Also, the booster engines have been recovered, which is a breakthrough in human history!
If you want to skip to the actual launch, go here (https://youtu.be/wbSwFU6tY1c?t=1788).

RIP main booster that failed to land on the drone ship. The other two that landed looked so great landing together. The main booster failing to land on target is only a small hiccup to their amazing achievement.

The main booster is going to mars. The center core failed to land.

Nonetheless, we are a step closer to mastering rocket launches. Who knows how much time is left until people can actually visit Mars and fully reuse the spaceship they came in with? Maybe Virgin Galactic  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virgin_Galactic) will make a breakthrough, too. Still, I doubt Nasa would do anything regarding spaceships any time soon, since the state (the United States of America) does not seem to care about them.
Also, here is footage taken from that Tesla Roadster that is now in space!
