“Exactly [@WholeMarsBlog] "Elon only has to get Tesla's market cap up to $2 trillion to secure the first tranche! That's way too easy!" Actually, even getting to a $2 trillion market cap (sustained over 6 months) is not enough. Tesla must also meet a corresponding operational milestone, like $50 billion”

“Pretty soon, there won’t be any companies left in Delaware [@eladgil] Anyone have a list of companies that are planning, or have made the move, from Delaware to either Texas or Nevada? Right now I have: -Texas: Tesla, SpaceX, ... -Nevada: Dropbox, Neuralink, TripAdvisor, Pershing Square, TradeDesk, ... )”
“2 main goals this year: - Starship to orbit - FSD wide release Many other things, of course, but those are the 2 giant kahunas. Will require insane work by many super talented people, but, if anyone can do it, they can. It is an honor to work with such awesome human beings.”
“And next year, Falcon is aiming for >150 flights!”
“This will save lives of people in remote locations by enabling them to call for help [@Starlink] Chile is the first Latin American country to make @Starlink Direct to Cell available to customers!

“Got more great feedback from Thailand. Primary path is basically a tiny, kid-size submarine using the liquid oxygen transfer tube of Falcon rocket as hull. Light enough to be carried by 2 divers, small enough to get through narrow gaps. Extremely robust.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Ah yes, I see they decided to editorialize. Here’s what I actually said: https://t.co/EPqtX7DLyl”
“Rocket fairing falls from space & is caught by Ms Tree boat https://t.co/nJv0Ry1iKk”
“Starship Super Heavy testing [@SpaceX] Cryoproof operations complete for the first time with a Super Heavy V3 booster. This multi-day campaign tested the booster's redesigned propellant systems and its structural strength”
“@DrLoupis No terminals from Gaza have attempted to communicate with our constellation. SpaceX will support communication links with internationally recognized aid organizations.”
“From here to Mars and then to the stars [@DimaZeniuk] ELON MUSK: “It needs to be sustainably multi-planetary, so not just visiting, but actually multi-planetary in the sense that if you have planetary redundancy, so if there were to be a catastrophe on one of the planets, the other planet would survive.

“Falcon 9 flight 50 launches tonight, carrying Hispasat for Spain. At 6 metric tons and almost the size of a city bus, it will be the largest geostationary satellite we’ve ever flown.”
“@airandspace @SpaceX Thank you for your kind words on behalf of the SpaceX team!”
“Starlink is a gamechanger [@SawyerMerritt] Starlink Wi-Fi review on Qatar Airways: "I used free @Starlink Wi-Fi on a 15-hour flight — and it just changed long-haul travel forever. I sent large attachments without delay, I downloaded documents, I responded to time-sensitive emails while crossing continents that I had”

“@teslaownersSV I hope there is a self-sustaining city on Mars in 20 years!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Yeah, but I didn’t leak it to NYT. They must have got it through friends of friends. I heard from multiple people at TED that Gates still had half billion short against Tesla, which is why I asked him, so it’s not exactly top secret.”
“Aiming for first flight of Falcon Heavy on Feb 6 from Apollo launchpad 39A at Cape Kennedy. Easy viewing from the public causeway.”
“SpaceX is a separate company and they did even claim that SpaceX/Starlink broke any laws. Purely capricious.”
“It's starting to feel kinda normal to reuse rockets. Good. That's how it is for cars & airplanes and how it should be for rockets.”
“@FedorovMykhailo @SpaceX @SpaceXStarlink @Honda @ChampionGen @westinghouse @DuroMaxPower Updating software to reduce peak power consumption, so Starlink can be powered from car cigarette lighter. Mobile roaming enabled, so phased array antenna can maintain signal while on moving vehicle.”

“Will be interesting to see how this is used [@ID_AA_Carmack] Starlink announced a $5/month plan that gives unlimited usage at 500kbits/s. Modern apps and web pages would immediately back up every buffer and make for a painful experience, but it is fun to consider optimizing inside that tight box (in the 90s, 4x ISDN was high end!).”
“It is a hard path to 100GW/year of AI in space, but we know what to do [@Teslaconomics] This statement mind boggles Ron Baron. Elon is talking about putting 25% of U.S.’s electricity output of solar powered AI satellites into orbit. Best believe SpaceX’s Starlink and Tesla’s energy business is going to benefit materially from this. “We see a path to putting 100”

“Falcon fairing halves missed the net, but touched down softly in the water. Mr Steven is picking them up. Plan is to dry them out & launch again. Nothing wrong with a little swim.”
“Good Starship SN8 static fire! Aiming for first 15km / ~50k ft altitude flight next week. Goals are to test 3 engine ascent, body flaps, transition from main to header tanks & landing flip.”
“@kanyewest Starship were meant to fly and our next one launches in about 3 weeks, but I recommend waiting for a few more test flights before hopping on board @NICKIMINAJ”

“@SmokeAwayyy With booster ultimately flying up to ~20 times per day & ship flying up to ~5 times per day. Useful load to Mars is ~150 metric tons, but requires ~5 orbital refilling tanker flights. Target: >1 megaton of cargo & people delivered to Mars, so that it becomes self-sustaining.”
“@DavidSacks SpaceX’s out of pocket cost to enable & support Starlink in Ukraine is ~$80M so far. Our support for Russia is $0. Obviously, we are pro Ukraine. Trying to retake Crimea will cause massive death, probably fail & risk nuclear war. This would be terrible for Ukraine & Earth.”
“@TeslaOwnersEBay If remaining tests go well, we will attempt a Starship launch next month”
“Cool! Starlink will keep improving as we launch more satellites. [@SawyerMerritt] Review of @Starlink on United Airlines: "It is an absolute game changer. I had download speeds in excess of 250 Mbps, and upload speeds of nearly 30 Mbps. With Starlink, I can do anything in the air that I could do on the ground."”
