In a post-launch press briefing, SpaceX Founder Elon Musk revealed that the Block 5 iteration of the Falcon 9 rocket will be its last revision. The company intends to launch a full-scale test for the BFR within the next three or four years, eventually replacing the rest of SpaceX’s launch vehicle lineup.
