“Pics of SpaceX spacesuit developed for NASA commercial crew program coming out next week. Undergoing ocean landing mobility/safety tests.”
“But you can check it out on @9GAGTweets. Btw, this isn't a video, like cliff diving or fake rocket landings, that matters if it's reversed.”
“@neddesmond @SpaceX The danger is def high for South Korea, due to proximity, but much less for distant targets like the US. SK anti-missile tech is excellent.”
“@neddesmond @SpaceX We certainly could, but, while not suggesting complacency, I'm confident that the US DoD and intelligence orgs have this covered”
“12th mission of our Dragon robotic space freighter in support of the @NASA @Space_Station https://t.co/vlGbGLgBcR https://x.com/spacex/status/897133836441534464”
“First draft animation of the Falcon Heavy three core launch. FH is twice the thrust of the next… https://t.co/vgZxF6ugoh https://www.instagram.com/p/BXXiVWFgphb/”

“Looking forward to launching @NASA astronauts to the International Space Station next year! https://t.co/qoLtTEP4L8 http://www.popularmechanics.com/space/a27453/spacex-boeing-launch-astronauts-next-year/”
“SpaceX student Hyperloop top speed competition coming up soon! https://t.co/R7FAPf6HLB https://x.com/hyperloop/status/892805772488388612”
“@caradocp Side booster rockets return to Cape Canaveral. Center lands on droneship.”
“Falcon Heavy maiden launch this November https://t.co/D4Dxq9d6hc https://www.instagram.com/p/BXEkGKlgJDK/”
“@RyanBiddle603 @SpaceX We can't have too many direct shareholders or we're required to become a public co. Will check if possible through a feeder fund though.”
“@andygen21 @Teslarati Yes, I postponed publishing in order to present the updated interplanetary rocket & spaceship design in Adelaide. Will be on the final day.”
“@jeff_foust Plan is to do powered landings on Mars for sure, but with a vastly bigger ship”
“@AuerSusan @valleyhack True. Also, Ariane primary bay can deliver slightly heavier satellites than Falcon 9. Falcon Heavy is needed ...”
“Other orgs shd also develop reusable orbital rockets. If an airplane co had reusable airplanes, buying single use airplanes wd seem crazy. https://t.co/OJotlGmPHt”
“Worth noting that Boeing/Lockheed ("Other US" on chart) get a billion dollar annual subsidy even if they launch nothing. SpaceX does not. https://t.co/Mi27ZnYLRJ https://x.com/concofahmet/status/885617156473450496”
“@SpaceX @INTELSAT Thanks @INTELSAT! Really proud of the rocket and SpaceX team today. Min apogee requirement was 28,000 km, Falcon 9 achieved 43,000 km.”
“SpaceX team reviewed all systems again late last night. Done our best to ensure all is good. https://t.co/R3YrF6PEt4 https://x.com/spacex/status/882693202930577408”
“@SpaceX We're going to spend the 4th doing a full review of rocket & pad systems. Launch no earlier than 5th/6th. Only one chance to get it right …”
“Another SpaceX launch today if weather is good https://t.co/UdUYn8Kf0C https://x.com/spacex/status/881558173886275584”
“Sorry to hear about China launch failure today. I know how painful that is to the people who designed & built it. https://t.co/iOkj6egF3O http://www.cnn.com/2017/07/02/asia/china-rocket-launch/index.html”
“@JaneidyEve @arstechnica @TeslaMotors @SpaceX Suggestions welcome!”
“Good summary of rocket landing history. There were two successful water landings much earlier, but they didn't survive long. https://t.co/N6kxxQeFby https://x.com/verge/status/879410754511831040”
“Sped up version of today's rocket landing on the Droneship Just Read the Instructions (guess it… https://t.co/0wFgXMgeqZ https://www.instagram.com/p/BVxysOlA04j/”
“@amirmasoudabdol Down the road, they will not even be repainted between launches. Aiming to be able to relaunch same orbital rocket booster in <24 hours.”
“Launch at 1:25 delivering 10 satellites for Iridium. Droneship repositioned due to extreme weather. Will be tight. https://t.co/6ZcSG29B74 http://spacex.com/webcast”
“@EcoHeliGuy Rocket was suddenly slammed sideways right before landing. Heavy gust or something malfunctioned onboard. Reviewing telemetry.”
“@zerosixbravo @john_gilleran True, but that's a minor factor for rockets”
“@ClovenLife No, but shielding got fragged every flight. More control authority is for Falcon Heavy, but also enables Falcon 9 to land in heavier winds.”
“@DJSnM They will, but the hydraulic system is closed loop, so no fluid lost. They do need more power & energy, but rocket has plenty of that.”
“Flying with larger & significantly upgraded hypersonic grid fins. Single piece cast & cut titanium. Can take reentry heat with no shielding. https://t.co/SmyCCQRt2F https://x.com/spacex/status/878732650277617664”
“Rocket is extra toasty and hit the deck hard (used almost all of the emergency crush core), but otherwise good”
“Falcon 9 will experience its highest ever reentry force and heat in today's launch. Good chance rocket booster doesn't make it back.”
“@partialobs @SpaceX Radiation”
“No need to rely on scientists for global warming -- just use a thermometer https://t.co/0PbtAL8uRK https://www.forbes.com/sites/marshallshepherd/2017/06/20/the-science-of-why-its-too-hot-for-some-planes-to-fly-in-the-southwest-u-s/#6a31c3f54ceb”
“If schedule holds there will be two Falcon 9 launches within 48 hours (Cape & Vandenberg) this weekend https://t.co/GbleRPm6iZ https://x.com/spacex/status/876522478046068737”
“Postponing launch to replace fairing pneumatic valve. It is dual redundant, but not worth taking a chance. https://t.co/vnfxmeer7h https://x.com/spacex/status/876522258948169728”
“Colonizing Mars (thanks Prof Hubbard for creating this from my talk). Major changes to the plan coming soon. https://t.co/s59qMHUj5O http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/pdf/10.1089/space.2017.29009.emu”
“Flying through the Falcon Factory https://t.co/kIuqfD3MLQ https://www.instagram.com/p/BVarZZSgfIP/”
“Mars V2 plan coming soon, which I think addresses the most fundamental flaw in V1: how to pay for development & operation of giant rockets https://t.co/yaITdVdpEc https://x.com/sciam/status/875756138121310208”
“$300M cost diff between SpaceX and Boeing/Lockheed exceeds avg value of satellite, so flying with SpaceX means satellite is basically free https://t.co/CaOulCf7ot https://x.com/arstechnica/status/875489606728372225”
“@RajveerJolly We are developing the interplanetary rocket and spaceship to allow anyone to travel to the moon, Mars & beyond, regardless of nationality”
“@JohnnyZenith All Falcon Heavy cores should be at the Cape in two to three months, so launch should happen a month after that”
“@kimchee_chigae @SpaceX Thanks :) Such an outrageous lawsuit. People sometimes underestimate strength of US judiciary. Lot of respect for the judge & jury system.”
“@SaherShodhan Almost. Falcon Heavy was way harder to develop than it seemed at first.”
“@commoboy @SpaceX Most people don't realize you can see Dragon approach the Space Station from the ground, even in LA”
“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.”
“First reflight of a Dragon spacecraft set for later today https://t.co/EW4HsWvlwc https://x.com/spacex/status/871073540891492352”
