“Yes [@mark_k] Elon Musk just announced a major strategic pivot for @SpaceX: the company is officially shifting its primary focus to building a "self-growing city" on the Moon. The logic is centered on speed. While Mars missions are restricted by orbital alignments every 26 months, SpaceX can… https://x.com/i/web/status/2020780398372900902”

“Might make sense to have thousands of solar reflector satellites 🛰 to warm Mars vs artificial suns (tbd)”

“Starbase is an area that experiences storms and hurricanes that are far more serious than Starship launches. The real headline of this article is boring, because it would say “Starship Launches Cause No Damage” 😂”

“One day Starship will land on the rusty sands of Mars https://t.co/EfENYVdOzM”

“600 [@XFreeze] SPACEX JUST MADE HISTORY AGAIN - 600 OVERALL FALCON MISSIONS Today, SpaceX launched a Falcon 9 rocket carrying NROL-105 for the National Reconnaissance Office from Vandenberg Space Force Base This was the 600th overall Falcon mission, with an overall success rate of ~99.5%… https://x.com/i/web/status/2012451992652927213”

“4 mins to Dragon loss of signal due to atmospheric entry plasma”

“There has been a lot of press claiming @SpaceX is raising money at $800B, which is not accurate. SpaceX has been cash flow positive for many years and does periodic stock buybacks twice a year to provide liquidity for employees and investors. Valuation increments are a… https://t.co/c9CVUNu6Hb https://x.com/i/web/status/1997399963509150089”

“Internet connectivity brings prosperity [@XFreeze] Elon Musk explains how Starlink will actually move the GDP of countries “If you don’t have access to the internet, or it’s too expensive or low bandwidth, you cannot access MIT lessons, you can’t access information, and you can’t sell your goods and services” Starlink changes”

“Maybe call Tesla solar roof tiles product Solarglass? Like Dragonglass, but solar!”

“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.”

“That is the goal [@XFreeze] Elon Musk: "The goal of SpaceX is to make life multiplanetary in order to extend the probable lifespan of consciousness That's been the goal from the beginning; you can see videos of me talking about this 20 years ago We need to transport a lot of people and equipment to Mars.… https://x.com/i/web/status/2010042446122758540”

“Yes [@cb_doge] For the first time ever, there is a rocket capable of establishing a permanent base on Mars. )”

“@WholeMarsBlog After that one puff with Rogan, I agreed, at NASA’s request, to do 3 years of random drug testing. Not even trace quantities were found of any drugs or alcohol. @WSJ is not fit to line a parrot cage for bird 💩”

“Falcon Heavy to launch next month from Apollo 11 pad at the Cape. Will have double thrust of next largest rocket. Guaranteed to be exciting, one way or another.”

“Thanks on behalf of @SpaceX team! We ♥️♥️♥️ @NASA!”

“@WholeMarsBlog Off-label use 🤣”

“Yeah [@teslaownersSV] “My plan is to use the money to get humanity to Mars and preserve the light of consciousness.” Elon Musk )”

“Starlink now connects over 5M people in 125 countries! [@Starlink] Starlink is connecting more than 5M people with high-speed internet across 125 countries, territories and many other markets. Thank you to all of our customers around the world!🛰️🌎❤️→ http://starlink.com/stories)”

“Fun mission [@MarioNawfal] 🚨SPACE BREAKTHROUGH: SPACEX LAUNCHES FIRST ASTEROID MINING MISSION A SpaceX rocket has launched Odin, a spacecraft built by startup AstroForge, on a mission to study asteroid 2022 OB5, which is 1 million miles from Earth. The asteroid is believed to contain platinum and other… )”

“Yup [@cb_doge] "Starlink internet is what's being used to pay for humanity getting to Mars. So I'd like to thank everyone out there who bought Starlink, because you're helping secure the future of civilization and helping make life multiplanetary." 一 Elon Musk”

“Dragon blazing across the sky 10 times faster than a supersonic bullet [@DavidSHolz] me and my friends just watched a SpaceX crew capsule re-enter the atmosphere soaring with fire across the stars over San Francisco, it was way more beautiful and inspiring than i expected. imagining people safe inside of it felt emotional. gosh you could really see the flames!”

“@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.”

“SpaceXAI will offer a Multipass [@elonmusk] @lyn_beatz”

“Moonbase Alpha! https://t.co/SoTlsZcj9w [@johnkrausphotos] This is a real photo, not AI, of the Moon rising behind Starship. Let’s go to the Moon again. Let’s go and stay. Let’s go build Moon Base Alpha! Starship will do so 🚀”

“Congratulations to the @Starlink team for achieving activation in 155+ countries! [@Starlink] This year, we activated Starlink in 35+ new markets, and are now covering 155+ countries and a global area home to 3.2 billion people, including those who live in some of the most remote places on Earth”

“Starlink is about to exceed 80% of all active satellites, with rest of world, including rest of US, <20% https://t.co/EpJXx6vceY https://x.com/i/grok/share/Eq5FqDDJrLAblcQRQ7991hRJY”

“Lot to learn on this flight [@PettitFrontier] SpaceX’s mission profile for Starship Flight 8. It will be eventful. Booster catch, Starlink deployment, in-space engine relight, entry & flip. I called @astro_Pettit and we’re optimistic the ISS will have brief in-flight visibility. And I will be at Starbase. Let’s do this. )”

“True [@HCGNYC] @WR4NYGov The word 'funding' in and of itself is disingenuous. SpaceX bids for service contracts. They typically have offered the most compelling cost and delivery and yet our feckless Gov still awards contracts to SpaceX competitors. Tesla is the most American made autos, will soon also…)”

“Congrats to SpaceX team on record number of launches!”

“Made with @Grok Imagine [@dvorahfr] Building Mars will require colossal works. Parts will be built on Earth and assembled on Mars. Grok Imagine, of course”

“About a month away from the first orbital test flight of crew Dragon”

“@WholeMarsBlog So many well off critics don’t understand that demand at scale is limited by affordability. There is plenty of demand for our products, but if the price is more money than people have, that demand is irrelevant.”

“It’s a big deal [@cb_doge] ELON MUSK: "The major breakthrough that SpaceX is hoping to achieve this year is full reusability. No one has ever achieved full reusability of a rocket, which is very important for the cost of access to space. We've achieved partial re usability with Falcon 9. We've now landed… https://x.com/i/web/status/2014386794419372134”

“@DefiantLs If you add up all the government funding Tesla and SpaceX have ever received, it is only about 1% of the combined value of the companies. In contrast, if you do that with US and European major aerospace companies, the government money they have received *exceeds* 100% of their… https://t.co/P57hWzKKLL https://x.com/i/web/status/2021663314716373227”

“@engineers_feed Due to lower gravity, you can travel from surface of Mars to surface of Earth fairly easily with a single stage rocket. Earth to Mars is vastly harder.”

“@niccruzpatane Already have thousands of times over. My “net worth” is almost entirely due to my ownership stakes in Tesla and SpaceX. I have <0.1% that is cash. Tesla and SpaceX employees all receive stock/options and Tesla is >80% owned by retail investors and index/pension funds, so value… https://t.co/3cXP7theq7 https://x.com/i/web/status/2023158948501594300”

“Great work by SpaceX Dragon team & Airborne! To be clear, we’ve only done 1 multi-parachute test of Mk3 design, so 9 more left to reach 10 successful tests in a row.”

“@teslaownersSV The Iron Man statue was given to SpaceX because part of Iron Man 2 was filmed in the rocket factory”

“@PPathole Most people have no idea Starship exists or how large this beast is! Body diameter (9m or 30 ft) is bigger than a 747 or A380. Starship thrust & mass are more than double Saturn V moon rocket. Making life multiplanetary means massive rockets. Got to be done.”

“Another batch of Starlinks in orbit, 7 hours after the astronaut launch”

“@ProTheDoge Lots of people I talked to on the production lines at Tesla or building rockets at SpaceX own Doge. They aren’t financial experts or Silicon Valley technologists. That’s why I decided to support Doge – it felt like the people’s crypto.”

“SpaceX is accelerating rapidly. When Starship is launching several times a day in a few years, SpaceX will be ~99% of all Earth payload mass to orbit, even if the others triple their current launch rate. [@FutureJurvetson] 🚀 T͢h͢e͢ ͢Q͢3͢ ͢L͢a͢u͢n͢c͢h͢ ͢R͢e͢p͢o͢r͢t͢ ͢j͢u͢s͢t͢ ͢c͢a͢m͢e͢ ͢o͢u͢t͢🚀 For kg launched to orbit, SpaceX has 97% share for the U.S. and 83% globally. The eight Chinese launchers add up to 8.6%. Looking into the graph's magnifying box, IDF just nudged past Rocket Lab. https://x.com/i/web/status/1994495568291532883”

“True [@ApoStructura] There is this recurring narrative that SpaceX needs government funding to survive. Not only does SpaceX not rely on government contracts for the majority of it’s revenue, it’s actually saved the US government Billions of dollars by being far cheaper than the competition.”

“@SciGuySpace Provided there is no serious launch anomaly, SpaceX will deliver 80% of Earth’s payload to orbit this year. Not counting Starship.”

“Solving cell phone dead zones with @Starlink [@MikeSievert] Today marks a huge step in @TMobile’s mission to end dead zones. T-Satellite is officially out of beta and available to anyone who wants it — including Verizon and AT&T customers! With 650+ satellites in orbit, the largest satellite-to-mobile constellation on the planet aims to”

“@WholeMarsBlog Future wars are all about the drones. Human crews of planes or tanks have no chance. One exception: a purely analog, human-controlled vehicle is far more resilient to EMF weapons.”

“Get the Performance terminal from @Starlink!

“First picture of SpaceX spacesuit. More in days to follow. Worth noting that this actually works… https://t.co/5ZtqkKiTQX https://www.instagram.com/p/BYIPmEFAIIn/”

“One square mile on the surface receives ~2.5 Gigawatts of solar energy. That’s Gigawatts with a “G”. It’s ~30% higher in space. The Starlink global satellite network is entirely solar/battery powered. Factoring in solar panel efficiency (25%), packing density (80%) and usable…”
