“@ssBlueStockings @ninoles @medickinson @thephysicsgirl It’s cool for kids & if used in a fun way, but if you called yourself a “rocket scientist” in aerospace, they would think you’re 🙃”
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.
“And, yes, I do in fact know that this sounds crazy. That is not lost on me. Nor I do think SpaceX will do this alone.”
“Apologies to those expecting Cybertruck deliveries in California over the next few days. We need to use those trucks as mobile base stations to provide power to Starlink Internet terminals in areas of LA without connectivity. A new truck will be delivered end of week.”
“@FBeuster There will be a combined booster static fire. Maybe a few.”
“@SchaFFFFFF Flight 24 is def capable of flying again, but it makes sense to apply ground delta qual to rocket w toughest entry conditions.”

“@kpe @SpaceX @grierallen @natedapore Cool, thanks for letting us know. This is helpful for figuring out fairing reusability.”
“@SmileSimplify @Vita_Berlin @c12olivas Exactly. Wouldn't let anyone invest more than a token amount in early rounds of SpaceX and Tesla, as the probability of failure was >90%.”
“Starlink has been told by some governments (not Ukraine) to block Russian news sources. We will not do so unless at gunpoint. Sorry to be a free speech absolutist.”
“Super excited to be in Brazil for launch of Starlink for 19,000 unconnected schools in rural areas & environmental monitoring of Amazon! 🇧🇷 🌳 🛰 ♥️”

“Dragon is docked with @Space_Station https://t.co/nrX1aDJsBz”
“Was misquoted by BBC as saying "Europe's rocket has no chance". Just said the [Franco-German] Ariane 5 has no chance, so go with Ariane 6.”
“@SmileSimplify @beboutside @Hyperloop @SpaceX @paradigm_hype @swissloop The latter. There are pretty long gaps between each team run, so livestream is not the way to go.”
“@zerosixbravo @john_gilleran True, but that's a minor factor for rockets”

“South Africa won’t allow Starlink to be licensed, even though I was BORN THERE, simply because I am not Black! We were offered many times the opportunity to bribe our way to a license by pretending that a Black guy runs Starlink SA, but I have refused to do so on principle. [@cb_doge] Why Elon Musk is RIGHT to fight South Africa’s racist rules blocking Starlink? Imagine this: Long ago, South Africa had very unfair laws called apartheid. They treated Black people badly and kept them from good jobs and money. When those bad laws ended, the country made new”
“The Year of the Dragon https://t.co/7Z3ZP4fej6”
“@BenCam137 @FifthRocket Exactly”
