Well, they're landing a really light shell with a really powerful engine for now, on Earth. Mars is gonna be a different story, considering the Red Dragon mission in 2018 (with already existing infrastructure, since the Red Dragon will basically be a Dragon 2 capsule and the S1 for the mission will be a Falcon Heavy) is gonna have the heaviest payload ever landed on mars with a semi-empty Dragon 2, and all the missions after that will probably try to land at least one MCT, which would be heavier of a Dragon 2 by itself, with some cargo... Luckily the MCT will have an even more powerful engine, and Mars's lighter gravity will probably help! |
