Correct [@AJamesMcCarthy] I keep getting comments about how this is a waste of taxpayer money Starship development is privately funded through Starlink subscriptions When NASA buys launches to put payloads into space, it’s because it was the cheapest option, which saves taxpayer money Hope this helps!

@neiltyson If we create a city on Mars, Earth-Mars travel will be a powerful forcing function for inventing something like warp drive

@angilly I don’t get the little ship thing. You can’t show up at Mars in something the size of a rowboat. What if there are Martians? It would be so embarrassing.

@WholeMarsBlog Yeah, but I didn’t leak it to NYT. They must have got it through friends of friends. I heard from multiple people at TED that Gates still had half billion short against Tesla, which is why I asked him, so it’s not exactly top secret.

The chart below is due for an update, but is roughly accurate. Flight 6 liftoff thrust is ~7500 tons and mass is ~5000 tons. The tanker version of Starship V3 will weigh over 7000 tons. By comparison, the heaviest Boeing 747 is less than 500 tons fully loaded.

@WholeMarsBlog That is why we must clear out bots, spam & scams. Is something actually public opinion or just someone operating 100k fake accounts? Right now, you can’t tell. And algorithms must be open source, with any human intervention clearly identified. Then, trust will be deserved.

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” 😂
