“First reflight of the Starship Super Heavy rocket booster coming up soon! [@SpaceX] Static fire of the Super Heavy preparing to launch Starship's ninth flight test. This booster previously launched and returned on Flight 7 and 29 of its 33 Raptor engines are flight proven”
“Starship V3 rocket booster [@SpaceX] Booster 19 preparing to begin prelaunch testing”
“Starship will take humanity to Mars https://t.co/BMBNI2mMKF”
“Starship to Mars https://t.co/yugko2BVU0”
“Starship takes beings of Earth to Mars https://t.co/6qaIc3p4yA”
“@TheMarsSociety SpaceX is developing rockets needed to make life multiplanetary — full & rapid reusability at large scale. Even if SpaceX fails in that goal, the rockets will still be most advanced on Earth. Starlink‘s purpose is to provide Internet to the least served & to pay for Mars.”
“Starship rocket booster caught by tower https://t.co/aOQmSkt6YE”
“Just inspected the Starship booster, which the arms have now placed back in its launch mount. Looks great! A few outer engine nozzles are warped from heating & some other minor issues, but these are easily addressed. Starship is designed to achieve reflight of its rocket… https://t.co/oWZoOOfHmk”
“The first Starships to Mars will launch in 2 years when the next Earth-Mars transfer window opens. These will be uncrewed to test the reliability of landing intact on Mars. If those landings go well, then the first crewed flights to Mars will be in 4 years. Flight rate will…”
“Starship will hopefully depart for Mars at the end of next year with Optimus explorer robots! [@MAstronomers] This is Mars! 140 million miles away from us!”
“The Martians will decide how they are ruled. I recommend direct, rather than representative, democracy. Uncrewed Starships landing on Mars in ~2 years, perhaps with crewed versions passing near Mars, and crewed Starships heading there in ~4 years are all possible.”
“Starship can reach Mars in 6 months every 26 months when the planets align [@Rainmaker1973] How long commercial airplane would take to reach each planet, if possible (speed ~ 900 km/h or 559 mph)”
“Only if civilization lasts long enough [@teslaownersSV] Starship will take us to Mars. )”
“Yes [@_The_Prophet__] ⚡️Starship is the most important machine on Earth because it is the only serious bridge between a trapped species and a spacefaring one. That is the real truth. Everything else is downstream of lift cost. Moon bases, Mars cities, orbital industry, space solar, off world mining,”
“Many Starships will go to Mars in 2 years, when the transit window opens again. The first wave will be without people and the second wave, 26 months later, with people, provided the first wave does not increment the crater count on Mars.”
“Starship will take humanity to Mars https://t.co/VEVWmjwb2w”
“One day, Starship will take us to Mars”
“Starships on Mars https://t.co/AyKEO6ATiZ”
“Just the passing grade needed to colonize Mars [@ElonFactsX] Elon Musk: “Falcon 1 is about half a ton to orbit. Starship 3 will be 400 times more payload for less than the cost of a Falcon 1. These are unthinkable numbers. Nobody ever thought this was possible.””
“The path to the stars is the Moon and Mars [@XFreeze] With Starship, humans aren’t just visiting space It’s a path to become a multi-planetary species This is how humanity breaks the single-planet limit This is how civilizations survive, expand, and explore beyond Earth and Mars is the start”
“Starships to ♥️ Mars ♥️”
“Every Starship launch is one more step towards Mars”
“Starship to Mars simulation https://t.co/fkpYvv5pMR https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=-Oox2w5sMcA&”
“There will be no wasted launch window [@palladiummag] Launch windows when planets are positioned most efficiently for travel have always been part of mission planning. We might soon enter an era when there is no wasted launch window, to Mars or any other planet. The night sky will be lit up with such Starship ignitions. )”
“From here to Mars and then to the stars [@DimaZeniuk] ELON MUSK: “It needs to be sustainably multi-planetary, so not just visiting, but actually multi-planetary in the sense that if you have planetary redundancy, so if there were to be a catastrophe on one of the planets, the other planet would survive. Starship is capable of doing… https://x.com/i/web/status/1998540379788816432”
“One day Starship will land on the rusty sands of Mars https://t.co/EfENYVdOzM”
“Going max hardcore on design/production Starship here in Boca. It’s awesome! Feels a bit like a Mars simulator.”
“@LadoBitnar I am highly confident that we can send several uncrewed Starships to Mars in 2 years. If those ships don’t increment the crater count on Mars, then crewed ships can be sent in 4 years.”
“@SciGuySpace @raikohtech I am confident that Starship will land humans on Mars. That path is clear. But what really matters is securing the future of consciousness, not just getting a small number of people to Mars. That probably requires getting over 100,000 people and 1M tons of cargo to Mars.”
“@ErcXspace Very close to real! Arms are able to move during descent to match exact booster position. Catch point is off to side, in case catch fails – don’t want to hit launch mount. Booster is transferred back to launch mount for next flight. Designed to have <1 hour turnaround.”
“@johnkrausphotos Starship will be on Mars within 5 years”
“@baierm588 Build 1000+ Starships to transport life to Mars. Basically, (very) modern Noah’s Arks.”
“@ErcXspace We’re going to try to catch the Super Heavy Booster with the launch tower arm, using the grid fins to take the load”
“@Erdayastronaut @flcnhvy @ErcXspace Production is hard, prototypes are easy. Building ~1000 Starships to create a self-sustaining city on Mars is our mission.”
“@NASA Starship has the potential to return serious tonnage from Mars within ~5 years”
“@Erdayastronaut Building 100 Starships/year gets to 1000 in 10 years or 100 megatons/year or maybe around 100k people per Earth-Mars orbital sync”
“@tobyliiiiiiiiii @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight Might just catch the ship with the launch tower, same as booster”
“@SPEXcast @TrungTPhan Starship will be crushingly cost-effective for Earth orbit or moon missions as soon as it’s operational & rapid reuse is happening. Mars is a lot harder, because Earth & Mars only align every 26 months, so ship reuse is limited to ~dozen times over 25 to 30 year life of ship.”
“@Erdayastronaut A booster catch attempt is highly likely this year. For the ship, we need to be sure that it will survive reentry and retain aero control authority, so that means at least 2 successes landing at a precise point in the ocean.”
“RT @teslaownersSV: Starship isn’t using AI to land. Code written by engineers. 🤯🤯🤯 It’ll take us to Mars https://t.co/DhgAS2FwKd”
“@abhiyogi Slight chance of Starship flight to Mars crewed by Optimus in Nov/Dec next year. A lot needs to go right for that. More likely, first flight without humans in ~3.5 years, next flight ~5.5 years with humans. Mars city self-sustaining in 20 to 30 years.”
“RT @cb_doge: The first Starship to Mars will be named "Heart of Gold" https://t.co/Cw0wbSUxbT”
“@SirineAti Starship is in a different league. Orders of magnitude more mass to orbit than Falcon. Necessary for creating a self-sustaining city on Mars.”
“@narutium @SawyerMerritt Falcon can probably get Starlink past breakeven, but Starship is needed to fund Mars”
“RT @cb_doge: One day, we’ll look back at Starship’s early launches and say: this is where humanity’s journey to Mars truly began. https://t…”
“@Andercot Starships on Mars or, even better, stationed throughout the asteroid belt, would be ideal for protecting Earth from asteroids and especially comets”
“RT @MarioNawfal: ELON: REGULATORY MOLASSES SLOWS DOWN OUR MULTIPLANET FUTURE “Starship is capable of building a city on Mars and a city on…”
“@teslaownersSV @Yasin__Shafiei @StarshipGazer Ultimate success is building a civilization on Mars that can continue to grow even if resupply ships from Earth stop coming. That gets us past the single-planet Fermi Great Filter. Along the way, there are of course many milestones of success that are significant from a…”
“@PPathole Booster has 2 pins for lifting & catching, although maybe it’s better to modify grid fins to take more load. Something will need to flip out from leeward side of top of ship to do same there. Maybe it’s part of fwd flaps, but prob not. Diff solutions for diff load paths.”
“Looks like Starship might fly on Sunday! This the largest & most powerful flying object ever made at more than double the thrust of the Saturn V Moon rocket. We will try to catch it upon return to launch site using the Mechazilla arms like giant chopsticks (like Karate Kid)!”
