The tweet archive.
15 years of Elon, fully searchable. The production archive uses Supabase as the source of truth, with 94,952 indexed tweets available in development as a full-archive fallback and a curated annotation layer for context, theory, and how major claims aged.
“@ElonsWorld @Tesla @SpaceX @neuralink @boringcompany @EashanMisra That would probably mean civilization is doing great, although depends on assumptions for inflation haha”
“@PPathole @johnkrausphotos @SpaceX Two of the engines need slight repairs, so will be switched out”
“@johnkrausphotos @SpaceX Nice shot”
“@Erdayastronaut Detanking & inspections now. Good progress towards our “Hop in & go to Mars!” goal.”
“@justpaulinelol @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX Wow, a lot has happened in 10 years!”
“Today at SpaceX is about practicing Starship engine starts. Ship is held down by massive pins while engines are fired. Two starts completed, about to try a third.”
“@arstechnica @SciGuySpace We’re just trying to get people to Mars. Help would be appreciated.”
“@SpaceX @Space_Station One day, we will get a camera up there that also shows the star field in the background”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX Was also thinking that SpaceX Boca should hold fun parties and give tours for the community from time to time”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX I super support public spaces around our production & launch sites, wherever it can be done safely and securely. When covid passes, we will open up our restaurant to the public & figure out ways to allow limited access to the High Bar.”
“@Christo49699922 @sean18743005 @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX That too”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX That’s actually our restaurant, but SpaceX is building a futuristic bar at the top of the high bay with 360 degree windows & a glass floor looking down on the rocket factory”
“@engineers_feed Indirectly, an electric rocket is possible by using electricity to convert CO2+H2O —> CH4+O2. This will be needed on Mars even for early missions & Earth too over time.”
“@ID_AA_Carmack I hope so. Wings don’t work on the moon at all and def not well on Mars. Also, no runways.”
“@Dtrford @austinbarnard45 @AlexSvanArt @ErcXspace @SpceEnthusiast @SpacexVision @TomDixonDesign @SpaceX @spaceXcentric Doesn’t quite illustrate true size difference. Starship payload volume & mass are >1000% that of Shuttle.”
“@RGVaerialphotos @SpaceX Yes”
“@smvllstvrs @ErcXspace Rocket motion is primarily vertical, so you want the top open”
“@Erdayastronaut @flcnhvy @ErcXspace Production is hard, prototypes are easy. Building ~1000 Starships to create a self-sustaining city on Mars is our mission.”
“@flcnhvy @ErcXspace Saves mass & cost of legs & enables immediate repositioning of booster on to launch mount — ready to refly in under an hour”
“@ErcXspace We’re going to try to catch the Super Heavy Booster with the launch tower arm, using the grid fins to take the load”
“@SpaceNews_Inc Starlink “poses a hazard” to Viasat’s profits, more like it. Stop the sneaky moves, Charlie Ergen!”
“@spacecoast_stve @NASASpaceflight Falcon was 25% of successful orbital launches in 2020, but maybe a majority of payload to orbit. Anyone done the math?”
“@harsimranbansal @heydave7 It will most likely make sense for Starlink to go public once the revenue growth is reasonably predictable”
“12 story rocket turns off its engines & does a controlled fall”
“@SpaceX Standing down for today to inspect rocket. Hopefully launching tomorrow.”
“@SpaceX Pressure is slightly high in upper stage liquid oxygen tank. Review underway.”
“@SpaceX Last launch of 2020 coming up”
“@PPathole @ErcXspace @SpaceX *cooling haha”
“@ErcXspace @SpaceX Ship leeward side will be bare metal, windward will have black, hexagonal heat shield tiles”
“@SpacePadreIsle @SpaceX Agreed, should be preserved in memory of SN8”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX SN8 did great! Even reaching apogee would’ve been great, so controlling all way to putting the crater in the right spot was epic!!”
“Thank you, South Texas for your support! This is the gateway to Mars.”
“Mars, here we come!!”
“Fuel header tank pressure was low during landing burn, causing touchdown velocity to be high & RUD, but we got all the data we needed! Congrats SpaceX team hell yeah!!”
“@SpaceX @Space_Station It’s called the Space “Station”, but it’s actually moving around Earth at ~25 times the speed of sound or ~10 times faster than a rifle bullet”
“@SpaceX Probably 1/3 chance of completing all mission objectives”
“@SpaceX Hopefully flying tomorrow”
“@Space_Station @SpaceX Wow, Station looks amazing!”
“@RDAnglePhoto @SpaceX @Teslarati Yes, it does.”
“@ErcXspace @SpaceX @NASASpaceflight @Erdayastronaut @MarcusHouseGame @FelixSchlang Not bad”
“@Tesmanian_com Award accepted on behalf of the great people at Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink & Boring Co”
“Much of what people think of an science is actually engineering, eg no such thing as a “rocket scientist”, only rocket engineers. Latter is who put humans on the moon.”
“@lrocket Thanks for everything you did to help build SpaceX! Some of the best memories ever.”
“@MarcusHouseGame @bcart03 @nextspaceflight @NASASpaceflight Starship legs are one of the hardest problems. Externally mounted legs require shielding, which adds mass. Wider stance adds mass. Shock absorbers add mass. That said, we need better legs.”
“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.”
“@Erdayastronaut @MarcusHouseGame Maybe start on that a year from now. Depends on how Starship progress goes.”
“@StarshipFairing @MarcusHouseGame Not bad! We will definitely need more engines if we make the cargo bay all propellant, but it’s probably smarter than a whole new shorter external hull.”
“@MarcusHouseGame Rapid & complete rocket reuse, low cost propellant, orbital refilling & propellant production at destination are the four essential elements of making life multiplanetary”
“Tomorrow will be the 7th flight of this rocket, landing on droneship Of Course I Still Love You”
