“First test flight hop of our Grasshopper VTVL rocket! http://t.co/oomI5vSB http://yfrog.us/0wusutopshpepnbpmodbgnosz”
“@NASA launched a rocket into the northern lights http://t.co/tR2cSeMV”
“@rocketrepreneur 382s is with a 150 area ratio vacuum (or Mars ambient pressure) nozzle. Will go over specs for both versions on Tues.”
“Certainly true that many people believe that Tesla and SpaceX are powered by the #hhgttg Infinite Improbability Drive :)”
“The gas generator is a small rocket engine that powers the turbopump, which produces 7000 horsepower & weighs 160 lbs”
“Heart goes out to people of central Texas, home of SpaceX TX. All resources at disposal to help in any way.”
“Dragon fly by of Space Station planned for 12:47 am California time. All systems green. #dragonlaunch”
“@dannysparker Aiming for relaunch in 3 to 4 months, pending detailed examination and 10X refiring of a returned booster”
“What it feels like to ride a rocket http://t.co/b5vhLvqg http://youtu.be/nUV6oqCFrFU”
“To be super clear, I don't wish to (nor could I) mandate anything about a Mars Colony. Am just working on the tech to get people there.”
“@thescalex @SpaceX @IAC2016 @YouTube its it is”
“@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.”
“Recovery ship has secured Dragon. Powering down all secondary systems. Cargo looks A ok.”
“@ninoles @medickinson @thephysicsgirl Using “rocket science” non-ironically in a bio is never a good sign, especially if you work on 🚀🔬”
“@JohanMancus Historical precedent. Mars vehicle will be metric.”
“Space Station tracking spaceship docking approach vector #Dragon http://t.co/CetZfiNg”
“@RusulAlrubail @MarkRuffalo @guardian Please check your facts. Tesla and SpaceX joined as soon as we received the filing, which was Monday.”
“@gdoehne Expendable. Future flights will go on Falcon Heavy or the upgraded Falcon 9.”
“Will do another static fire of rocket to make sure all is good & AF needs to test ICBMs, so probable launch Sept 29/30.”
“10 years ago today, SpaceX was founded. Many battles fought. Physics always won. http://t.co/p85UHeuq http://ow.ly/9FdXR”
“@Jon_Favreau @SpaceX Thanks!”
“@MarinPilates @WeDragonSlayers Prob iTunes, but whatever works 4u is fine. Most people don’t buy music & artist earnings from streaming are tiny. Mostly about touring. https://t.co/7eITqomrqc https://itunes.apple.com/us/album/art-angels/1051022913”
“@FifthRocket Did you read my tweets? I attacked it hard. Did not defend.”
“@beboutside @Hyperloop @SpaceX @paradigm_hype @swissloop SpaceX and The Boring Company are running the Hyperloop competition”
“Dragon flies over the SpaceX #GrasshopperProject at our central Texas test site. It will jump soon. http://t.co/P17Z56II”
“The London Sunday Times created a chart showing how Falcon compares to the Saturn V and Shuttle http://t.co/nJMPtYPd”
“SpaceX software engineering is doing an AMA on Reddit http://t.co/hwkUwM5v http://www.reddit.com/r/IAmA/comments/1853ap/we_are_spacex_software_engineers_we_launch/”
“@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 🙃”
“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.”
“@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.”
“@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.”
“Simulations show launch ok with bad valve. Still, better to stop & fix. Recalling rockets after launch is not an option.”
“@dfjsteve Very similar. The crush core in the Falcon legs is reusable after soft landings, but needs to be replaced after hard.”
“Would also like to thank @USAirForce for allowing us to use their long range comm system for Dragon in free drift.”
“SpaceX will go public at some point, as I think it should ultimately be owned primarily by the public "@bm_ will SpaceX go public?"”
“Woohoo, rocket hold down firing completed and all looks good!!”
“@JimDeKort @SpaceX It does”
“@andyzalk sounds like the right name for the rocket booster”
“Will show Johnny Cash hover slam rocket video for the first time in about 15 mins. Test footage only 36 hrs old. #SXSW”
“@kpe @SpaceX @grierallen @natedapore Cool, thanks for letting us know. This is helpful for figuring out fairing reusability.”
“@BArtusio Three cable elevator on a crane. Wind force on Mars is low, so don't need to worry about being blown around.”
“Falcon 9 and Dragon now vertical on the launch pad, surrounded by 300 ft tall lightning towers http://t.co/iERgA2RP”
“@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%.”
“Thrusters will also fire during reentry to adjust touchdown point. Next version will land w helicopter precision #Dragon”
“Am pushing launch back approx a week to do more testing on Dragon docking code. New date pending coordination with @NASA.”
