    Payload will be my midnight cherry Tesla Roadster playing Space Oddity. Destination is Mars orbit. Will be in deep space for a billion years or so if it doesn’t blow up on ascent.

        Just to reiterate, the payload for the first Falcon Heavy rocket will be a Tesla electric car, playing Space Oditty, heading for Mars.

        I would usually opine that the "Thingy McThingface" or its variant "Thing McThingyface" meme/naming movement is way past tired, but I am so fudging excited about Elon's announcement that I find naming the Roadster spacecraft that is quite fitting. 👍🏼☺️👍🏼
