Everybody is amazed by Mechazilla, but it was also today that the Europa Probe launched.
Quote:
A landmark Heavy launch
Today's launch was the 11th overall for the Falcon Heavy, and its second interplanetary mission. It was also the first Falcon Heavy launch to require the full expenditure of the vehicle's three first-stage boosters.
Normally, the first-stage boosters for Spacex's Falcon Heavy and Falcon 9 rockets reserve enough fuel to perform landing burns for recovery and reuse on future launches.

That's a full send.
