Currently Falcon Heavy is scheduled to lift off sometime in May 2016.

...

If they use the new core, the Falcon Heavy will have three fifths the thrust of the Saturn V.

That’s a heckuva rocket.

I’m looking forward to seeing the Falcon X that will use nine Raptor engines each producing about a million pounds of thrust!
