”The Falcon Heavy is the most powerful rocket launched in the U.S. since the Apollo missions.” Incorrect. The space shuttle produced 7.8 million pounds of total thrust versus the Falcon 9 heavy’s 5.1 million pounds.

True. FH is the most powerful liquid fueled rocket since Saturn V.

Should have just said FH can place two and one-half times the shuttle’s payload capability into low orbit.
