“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.”
“@johnkrausphotos Starship will be on Mars within 5 years”
“@baierm588 Build 1000+ Starships to transport life to Mars. Basically, (very) modern Noah’s Arks.”
“Great progress by Starship Cape team. Started several months behind, but catching up fast. This will be a super fun race to orbit, moon & Mars!”
“@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”
“@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.”
“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”

“@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…”

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

“Since your handle is “Whole Mars”, perhaps this lengthy reply is apropos: Getting the cost per ton to the surface of Mars low enough that humanity has the resources to make life multiplanetary requires a roughly 1000X improvement in rocket & spacecraft technology. Recent US…”

“@Malcolmmarsman @flcnhvy No problem. We could program Starship to perform Swan Lake in the sky. Minimizing landing burn propellant mass is what’s hard.”
“RT @teslaownersSV: WHY STARSHIP NEEDS TO BE SO MASSIVE: ELON MUSK EXPLAINS THE SCALE FOR MARS Elon has repeatedly emphasized that Starship…”
“@annerajb @highlyaaronic Orbital refilling is critical for high payload to moon or Mars. Initially just Starship to Starship, later dedicated tankers.”

“@SpaceX For the first time ever, there is a rocket capable of establishing permanent bases on the moon and Mars”
“That is the goal [@XFreeze] Elon Musk: "The goal of SpaceX is to make life multiplanetary in order to extend the probable lifespan of consciousness That's been the goal from the beginning; you can see videos of me talking about this 20 years ago We need to transport a lot of people and equipment to Mars.… https://x.com/i/web/status/2010042446122758540”
