First you launch the Mk1-2 Command Pod and Mk1 Lander Can and the Clamp O' Tron Docking Port. Then you launch the rest and connect it in orbit after you transfer the one man crew in the Mk1 Command Pod you should include in the rocket that launches the lower part (but separate after docking and transferring the crew from the Mk1 Command Pod you seperated to the Mk1 Lander Can.

Falcon Heavy - Launcher

The Falcon Heavy is currently in development and will be the most powerful rocket currently in use. It will be one of the most powerful after the Saturn V and Energia.
