“@astro_greek Many funny details on Raptor. The special metal alloy SpaceX created for the rocket nozzles turns green, so we painted Hulk on the first one.”

“@Anarseldain President @realDonaldTrump is right. We must distinguish clearly between companies that need to hire critical world-class talent from other countries vs companies that simply hire lower cost non-US employees to increase profits. SpaceX has succeeded *despite* not being unable”

“@spideycyp_155 @FedorovMykhailo @SpaceX Starlink has faced relentless jamming attacks & SpaceX relentless cyberwar. So far, their success has been limited.”

“@WholeMarsBlog The real plaintiff is the class-action law firm”

“@peterrhague No, we’re going straight to Mars. The Moon is a distraction. Mass to orbit is the key metric, thereafter mass to Mars surface. The former needs to be in the megaton to orbit per year range to build a self-sustaining colony on Mars.”

“@BLKMDL3 @GailAlfarATX @WholeMarsBlog Yes”

“@DonaldJTrumpJr @SpaceX @realDonaldTrump @kaitrump @tedcruz Great week in so many ways!”

“RT @cb_doge: We are going straight to MARS! https://t.co/TlG791JgnO”

“RT @DogecoinNorway: Scandinavian Airlines is hooking all their aircraft up with Starlink from SpaceX🔥 By the end of 2025, all aircraft wil…”

“@WholeMarsBlog High-performance code is in C using our own compiler to maximize frame rate. We use Python with custom libraries for fast prototyping, then convert to C for fast execution. New software is run against real-world video & our world simulator to evaluate performance, then QA.”

“@MarcusHouse A second is a long time to a rocket. Said another way, it was 1000ms or ~50 control cycles away from hitting the tower. Not actually that close.”

“RT @johnkrausphotos: This Super Heavy booster flies again tomorrow. It is the first booster reuse of the Starship program, and comes after…”

“RT @johnkrausphotos: Rainbow with Starship! Good luck sign ahead of Flight 9 today 🌈🚀🤞 https://t.co/7T5PytJeqS”

“@hisdirtremoves @SpaceX I can’t comment on turbopump internal details, but you’re roughly in the ballpark. Wow, rocket turbopumps, especially if oxygen-rich, are insanely hard! Arguably, the hardest mechanical/fluids/combustion problem known to exist.”

“@ashleevance DoD provided about 3% of the Falcon 1 development cost. Appreciated, certainly, but should be seen in context.”

“RT @ElonFactsX: “A lot of people said that rocket reusability was a dumb idea. We've shown that, in fact, it is absolutely the right idea.…”

“RT @Starlink: The Starlink team has also enabled Direct to Cell service in Jamaica for all Liberty Caribbean customers. Emergency services…”

“RT @SpaceX: Following the successful Rapid Response Trailblazer mission in December, Falcon 9 will launch the accelerated GPS III-7 mission…”

“@PPathole @DELTA_V @spacex360 After several successful launches, land overflight earlier in trajectory passes E-sub-c safety threshold. That said, Starship will also launch from Cape long-term.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Seriously, what an idiot! All that actually matters is how many billions of tons of carbon are moved from underground to the atmosphere. Everything else is immaterial. Solve sustainable energy on the surface (solar/wind/nuclear/geothermal) and you solve it all.”

“@4sanjaymathew @thesheetztweetz @esa @AschbacherJosef @SpaceX @SpireGlobal Exactly. Getting paid by the government to launch payloads at much lower prices than competitors is not “government support”.”

“@PPathole @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @Caspar_Stanley @IzanRamos2002 Some small tubes & wiring need to be nested in a bigger tube for thermal protection, kinda like conduit in a house. Engines themselves & booster base are extremely robust. High strength stainless steel is bulletproof to a handgun at ~2.5mm thickness. Booster dome is 4mm.”

“@SawyerMerritt @Starlink Airlines that don’t have Starlink will be at a serious disadvantage”

“RT @elonmusk: @SciGuySpace @raikohtech I am confident that Starship will land humans on Mars. That path is clear. But what really matters…”

“RT @Starlink: Starlink is providing high-speed internet to BloomBox Design Labs, a non-profit that transforms shipping containers into sola…”

“@LanceUlanoff Note, gas contained would be ultra high pressure air in a SpaceX rocket COPV bottle. The air exiting the thrusters would immediately be replenished whenever vehicle pack power draw allowed operation of the air pump, which is most of the time.”

“We figured out how to design rocket parts just w hand movements through the air (seriously). Now need a high frame rate holograph generator.”

“@PeterDiamandis With the advent of Starship, there is finally a path to solar-powered AI satellites at massive scale. It is the only path I can see that would allow for deployment of 1TW/year of AI.”

“RT @SpaceX: Falcon 9 launches the Transporter-13 mission to orbit from California https://t.co/fxw6CAIQMa”

“@annerajb @waitbutwhy Looks like a thin, flat, round UFO on a stick. Starlink Terminal has motors to self-adjust optimal angle to view sky. Instructions are simply: - Plug in socket - Point at sky These instructions work in either order. No training required.”

“@twatterbaas @Starlink Waiting for regulatory approval”

“@WholeMarsBlog Essentially, passive Autopilot (car intervenes only when crash probability is high) cuts crashes in half. Active Autopilot (car is driving itself) cuts crashes in half again. Doesn’t mean there are no crashes, but, on balance, Autopilot is unequivocally safer.”

“@GailAlfarATX @SpaceX @SirineAti @austinbarnard45 @OwenSparks_ @TacosandTeslas @EvaFoxU @DimaZeniuk @Grandpajoe42 @AstroJordy Yes”

“.@curtismcauliff SpaceX has not donated to any presidential campaign”

“@yunta_tsai @wholemars Brothers in arms”

“@StarshipFairing We are on the wrong planet for SSTO. On Mars, it is thankfully easy.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Posting questions on social media is not yet a crime. Oh wait, it is …”

“@amoghbhushan @TeslaClubIN @WholeMarsBlog @MKBHD Thanks for waiting!”

“@JeffTutorials @WholeMarsBlog That’s arguably a security issue, but allowing companies to use other payment options, especially for in-app purchases would be fair. As soon as they allowed that, they would have to lower their fees. As for the cost of reviewing apps for security, a fixed fee makes sense.”

“@RichardHanania Best to hear it in the words I have used in many interviews over the years. I have not fwiw “volunteered my sperm” 😂 No one at SpaceX has been directed to work on a Mars city. When people have asked to do so, I’ve said we need to focus on getting there first.”

“@WholeMarsBlog The threshold for what it will tell you, if pushed, is what is available on the Internet via reasonable browser search, which is a lot …”

“@Astro_Elliott @LifeboatHQ Once you have rapidly reusable rockets of sufficient size to carry >100 tons of payload, it is not clear that cost per ton to orbit/moon/Mars improves with a larger rocket. Aircraft, for example, have moved away from 747/A380 to 777, which has ~100 tons of payload.”
