(Image credit: Elon Musk/SpaceX)SpaceX CEO Elon Musk unveiled this new rendering of the company's Big Falcon Rocket spacecraft ahead of the announcement Sept. 17, 2018 of the first passenger to fly a trip around the moon. The design shows many changes from the 2017 version seen in other images in this gallery. Notable differences include the three pronounced fins and a retractable forward wing.
(Image credit: SpaceX)The BFR will be 387 feet (118 meters) tall, and it can carry payloads up to 100 metric tons all the way to the surface of Mars.
(Image credit: SpaceX/Flickr)The BFR's new design is more spacious inside, fitting more than 35,000 cubic feet (1,000 cubic meters) of pressurized space inside. The payload section measures 180 feet (55 meters) long. That's more than 10 times the size of the space shuttle's living quarters.
(Image credit: SpaceX)To steer, the BFR has two actuated forward fins and three in the rear. (Elon Musk also referred to these features as "wings" or "fins.")

(Image credit: SpaceX)On Sept. 13, 2018, SpaceX announced it had signed the 1st private passenger for a moon trip on BFR. This image released with that announcement offered the first glimpse of BFR's design changes since the 2017 version (which fill the rest of this gallery). A significant change here is the highlight of 7 Raptor engines in use in vacuum. The 2017 design had 6 Raptor engines, with 4 for use in space and 2 for sea-level use during launches.
