“@GailAlfarATX @SpaceX @cnunezimages Great citizen journalism!”

“@NASASpaceflight Still aiming for booster 4 & Ship 20 for first orbital test flight (this is pure coincidence!)”

“@WholeMarsBlog Most people have no idea, even though there are so many FSD progress videos posted. Munro understood right away. There will be a gap before the next release, but then it will be a step change better. Tesla is solving a major real-world AI problem.”

“@WholeMarsBlog @rocker_261 @SawyerMerritt Training compute for Tesla is relatively small compared to inference compute, as the latter scales linearly with size of fleet. Perhaps the best way to think about it is in terms of power consumption. When the Tesla fleet reaches 100M vehicles, peak power consumption of AI…”

“@Erdayastronaut @flcnhvy @ErcXspace Production is hard, prototypes are easy. Building ~1000 Starships to create a self-sustaining city on Mars is our mission.”

“@nextspaceflight @NASASpaceflight @BocaChicaGal @SpaceX 29 Raptors on Booster initially, rising to 32 later this year, along with thrust increase per engine. Aiming for >7500 ton thrust long-term. T/W ~1.5.”

“@Brian_J_Berger That dude is not just a “condition of anonymity” spineless coward, he’s also an ignorant fool. Starlink was directly requested by the Ukraine government, as it was the only thing that worked.”

“@ray4tesla Did my best to warn people that LiDAR isn’t optimal for cars. Roads are designed for biological neural nets & eyes, so digital neural nets & cameras will work best. I say this even though Dragon uses LiDAR for docking with Station, so I don’t intrinsically hate that technology.”

“@Tesmanian_com Award accepted on behalf of the great people at Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink & Boring Co”

“@SciGuySpace Cumulative payload to orbit is the really crazy number. Falcon has delivered more than double rest of world combined over trailing 12 months.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Any car company that fails to solve self-driving will die”

“@SawyerMerritt The “subsidies” he’s talking about simply do not exist. DJT has already removed or put an expiry date on all sustainable energy support while leaving massive oil & gas subsidies untouched. SpaceX won the NASA contracts by doing a better job for less money. Moving those”

“@patrickc I thought SpaceX and Tesla both had >90% chance of failure, but worth trying anyway”

“@WholeMarsBlog The path to overwhelming victory is clear, but a massive amount of work remains”

“@WholeMarsBlog Then HW5, which has been renamed to AI5, in the second half of next year. The Tesla AI5 computer has ~10X the capability of HW4 computer and Tesla makes the whole software stack.”

“@FedorovMykhailo @Brian_J_Berger @SpaceX @SpaceXStarlink @Honda @ChampionGen @westinghouse @DuroMaxPower @W__Home Solar area will need to be higher with obscuration, but works better than one might think”

“@BillyM2k The only thing keeping the other orbital rocket programs alive is government protection or they’d be deader than a doornail and everyone knows it. But oh well … comme ci, comme ça.”

“@Astro_Elliott @Teslarati @ResidentSponge Aiming to have hot gas thrusters on booster for first orbital flight”

“@rustyrockets @bariweiss @shellenberger @mtaibbi 💯”

“@Jason Thanks Jason! Super proud to work with such great teams at SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink and Boring!!”

“@FedorovMykhailo @Starlink You’re welcome”

“@NASASpaceflight It will look crazy tall with booster & fairing at 122m / 394 ft”

“Falcon 9 launches Iridium to orbit from Vandenberg Air Force Base https://t.co/7GTzx0a24d https://www.instagram.com/p/Bl8M-mNAN3f/?utm_source=ig_twitter_share&igshid=18erh862v2fe1”

“@MarcusHouse It will have high pressure air rocket thrusters behind a license plate that flips down. Bong, James Bong …”

“@arstechnica @SciGuySpace Russia has great rocket technology & talent. Much respect. Would encourage focus on reusability. Single-use rockets cannot be competitive any more than single-use aircraft.”

“@SawyerMerritt SpaceX launches competitor satellite systems without favor to its own satellites. Fair and square.”

“@ZainS180 @VikingRocket @WholeMarsBlog Cybertruck will reach far into a post-apocalyptic future & bring that technology to now”

“@GailAlfarATX @SpaceX @cnunezimages I subscribed!”

“@WholeMarsBlog @StuartZuckerma1 ~4.5X increase in params should be ready for wide release later this year. Super frugal use of memory bandwidth, caching exactly what is needed & squeezing microseconds out of everything are needed to maintain the frame rate. And the whole system needs to be retrained.”

“@FedorovMykhailo Starlink data usage growth in Ukraine https://t.co/c4IWNwKwLR”

“@WholeMarsBlog They will switch from claiming that Tesla self-driving is fake to Tesla self-driving is unfairly good”

“@flcnhvy Good grief! SpaceX is getting zero money for this. Starship is designed to carry people & cargo around Earth (also to moon & Mars). Vast majority of use will be civilian. It’s just like an airline in space. All airlines sometimes carry military cargo, but ~99% is civilian.”

“@AdamLowisz Other companies are not trying to extend consciousness to the stars, so they aim too low. Even if SpaceX fails in this grand goal, we still end up with vastly more capable rockets.”

“@mdcainjr @SpaceX @45thSpaceWing @NASA Great photo!”

“@WholeMarsBlog The new Plaid S is our best car ever. Will be first production car to achieve 0-60mph in under 2 secs & it has four doors & seats up to 7 people.”

“@arstechnica @SciGuySpace They are aiming too low. Only rockets that are fully & rapidly reusable will be competitive. Everything else will seem like a cloth biplane in the age of jets.”

“@SERobinsonJr Upper stage restart to raise perigee resulted in an engine RUD for reasons currently unknown. Team is reviewing data tonight to understand root cause. Starlink satellites were deployed, but the perigee may be too low for them to raise orbit. Will know more in a few hours.”

“@JaneidyEve @flcnhvy @Freiraum77 @SpaceX Aiming for 20km flight in Oct & orbit attempt shortly thereafter. Starship update will be on Sept 28th, anniversary of SpaceX reaching orbit. Starship Mk 1 will be fully assembled by that time.”

“@WholeMarsBlog The primary solution to a sustainable energy future is solar/wind with batteries for when sun doesn’t shine or wind doesn’t blow, interconnected with conventional high voltage lines. No unknown technology is needed! Hydro+geothermal+fission will also be non-trivial contributors.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Will be amazing to see it in operation! Biggest casting machine ever made. Will make rear body in a single piece, including crash rails.”

“RT @SawyerMerritt: The Pentagon said that @SpaceX has saved the government over $40B. One SLS launch costs billions. One SpaceX launch cost…”

“@WholeMarsBlog Vision became so good that radar actually reduced SNR, so radar was turned off. Humans drive with eyes & biological neural nets, so makes sense that cameras & silicon neural nets are only way to achieve generalized solution to self-driving.”

“@wholemars AI chips are needed for everything”

“Aiming to launch this weekend and (hopefully) land on our droneship. Ship landings needed for high velocity missions https://t.co/n6j0mExAqM https://x.com/spacex/status/686740078387843073”

“RT @teslaownersSV: SpaceX is making fully rapidly reusable rockets The holy grail of rocketry https://t.co/VgdOiRJSxl”

“@flcnhvy Starship steel decision came first. We were going to use titanium skins for Cybertruck, but cold-rolled 30X stainless is much stronger.”

“@WholeMarsBlog To be fair, investors are giving us significant credit for achieving self-driving, given that Tesla’s valuation/production is very high compared to other automakers”

“@Rainmaker1973 Used a lot in rocketry”

“@SawyerMerritt Cybertrucks get preferential parking, as they look much more futuristic than normal cars and are poetically aligned with the stainless steel of Starship”

“@BrennanChant @SpaceX Yeah. Active fairing half recovered though.”
