NASA's new rocket design to be used in 2018 will be bigger and more luxurious than ever before.
The new rocket, which will go by the name Space Launch System (SLS), will stand 384 feet tall and use liquid hydrogen and oxygen as fuel - making it 20 percent faster than before, according to The Verge.
SLS, scheduled to be ready for flight by November 2018, will be the biggest rocket ever made, CS Monitor says.
With SLS' higher performance, NASA plans to have the rocket go on its first unmanned test launch in 2018 and have humans take it to orbit around an asteroid, landing on Mars by 2030, The Verge reports.
It also should have the capabilities to send astronauts deeper into space than ever before according to CS Monitor.
So far, the SLS has cost $2.7 billion and taken three years to develop, before finally beginning the construction phase. Fox News says SLS will end up costing an additional $7 billion over the next four years, as Space.com reports.
