“SpaceX & Tesla comp is same or better than other companies. Big diff is that we don't outsource manufacturing, retail sales or service.”

“@TheMarsSociety @NASA Some amount of cooperation would be good”

“@999BPM @tesla_adri @WholeMarsBlog No amount of money can defy physics”

“@WholeMarsBlog Just want to reiterate that there is no glass house (metaphors don’t count lol) built, under construction or planned! I’m not building any house of any kind anywhere. Period.”

“@ajtourville A stainless steel Starship is essentially the same mass as an advanced carbon fiber or aluminum-lithium version, given that it is a reusable rocket, as steel can handle much higher heat loads, requiring less shielding, and its strength increases dramatically at cryogenic…”

“@WholeMarsBlog FSD will save millions of lives”

“Rocket reentry is a lot faster and hotter than last time, so odds of making it are maybe even, but we should learn a lot either way”

“RT @astro_Pettit: My best sighting of a Starlink satellite "train" from orbit! https://t.co/WratClL8NJ”

“@chainsawdotcom @CL207 SpaceX Starlink bought a tiny – not large – ad package to test effectiveness of Twitter advertising in Australia & Spain. Did same for FB/Insta/Google.”

“@JonErlichman Starlink was *extremely* difficult to build. Thanks to an epic team and many years of hard work, it has succeeded.”

“@WholeMarsBlog There is always a lot of cleanup after a major code release. Beta 9.2 will be tight. Still some fundamentals to solve for Beta 10, but now that we’re pure vision, progress is much faster. Radar was holding us back.”

“@tobyliiiiiiiiii @RationalEtienne @SPEXcast @William_M_Brown @PPathole @thesheetztweetz @waEMD @SpaceX @SpaceXStarlink @WANationalGuard Oh yeah, Starship update coming in about 3 weeks. The design has coalesced. What is presented will actually be what flies to orbit as V1.0 with almost no changes.”

“@tunguz He is just plain wrong. Almost the entire founding team of @SpaceX was over 30. Over half of the founding team of Tesla was too.”

“RT @cb_doge: BREAKING: MrBeast just posted a new video touring SpaceX’s massive Starship rocket manufacturing facility in Texas. https://t.…”

“RT @teslaownersSV: The scale of the Starship is insane and 🤯🤯🤯 https://t.co/6k9Ky0ZPMZ”

“@Thomas_Sergeant @beffjezos My “net worth” will just track SpaceX+Tesla market cap, so will be whatever that is as a percentage of GDP”

“@MarcusHouse The next stage of the Starship program should be called The Two Towers”

“@MuskUniversity Based on the Falcon launch plan for next year, SpaceX will deliver ~90% of all Earth payload to orbit. Starship will take that to >99% in future years. These magnitudes are madness to consider, but necessary to make consciousness multiplanetary.”

“@PPathole @nextspaceflight @NASASpaceflight @BocaChicaGal @SpaceX Actually, so-called “secondary” structure is the hard part – so many pipes & wires. Tall stuff & small stuff are the toughest things about Starship.”

“@WholeMarsBlog @NASASpaceflight @BBCAmos There is a reason no fully reusable orbital rocket has been built – it’s an insanely hard problem. Moreover, it must be rapidly & completely reusable (like an airplane). This is the only way to make life multiplanetary. Efficiencies of scale is why Starship is so large.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Berlin will use 4680 cell with structural battery pack & front & rear single piece castings. Also, a new paint system. Lot of new technology will happen in Berlin, which means significant production risk. Fremont & Shanghai will transition in ~2 years when new tech is proven.”

“RT @SpaceX: Launch and ascent of Starship's eleventh flight test https://t.co/mbMVb6jebW”

“@TJ_Cooney Wow, 2011 seems like eons ago! With fairing recovery, Falcon is ~80% reusable, but reflight takes several days & requires boats. Starship will be fully reusable with booster reflight possible every few hours & ship reflight every 8 hours. No boats needed.”

“@thesheetztweetz Full & rapid reusability is the holy grail of orbital rocketry”

“@johnkrausphotos @Patreon @SuperclusterHQ @SpaceX Maybe this should be the flag of Mars”

“RT @SpaceX: Falcon 9 and Dragon vertical at pad 39A in Florida. Targeting Tuesday, June 10 for launch of Ax-4 → https://t.co/LU1wyD7X9s htt… http://spacex.com/launches/mission/?missionId=ax-4”

“RT @JonErlichman: Age of these businesses: Tesla: 22 years SpaceX: 23 years Google: 27 years Netflix: 28 years Amazon: 31 years Nvidia: 32…”

“@Erdayastronaut @LevEakins More accurate word is “propellant”, rather than “fuel”. Starship is ~78% liquid oxygen, ~22% fuel. Propellant cost is of primary importance for a fully reusable rocket, so reusable rockets want high thrust, as thrust below T/W of 1 is irrelevant.”

“@WholeMarsBlog FSD/AI team is doing great work. Will get superhuman good in upcoming releases. Note, we will slow down upload rate of releases going forward. First from QA fleet to employee cars for a day, then slowly releasing at ~1000 cars/hr to external beta on Friday aft.”

“@blueskykites @Tesla @SpaceX @mayemusk @WholeMarsBlog @28delayslater @JohnnaCrider1 @Kristennetten @SirineAti @GailAlfarATX @DimaZeniuk @bevedoni @RationalEtienne @ashleevance @adamhoov @klwtts @RenataKonkoly For a couple of months, but, yeah, that looks like the place. Does Mark still live there?”

“Thoughtful Op-ed in Space News much appreciated https://t.co/CJq5g3NIEK http://spacenews.com/op-ed-despite-spacex-setback-future-of-private-space-exploration-is-bright/”

“@WholeMarsBlog Real-world validation & billions of miles of real-world training are what will make FSD superhuman”

“RT @SpaceX: Liftoff of Starship's eighth flight test https://t.co/Vx8tSbgBD5”

“@archillect Sorry, probably going to be a lot of rocket pics from @archillect 🤣🤣”

“@TeslaHype @GailAlfarATX Starship is intended to carry a lot of people on tens of thousands of flights, so needs to be extremely reliable over time. It will be.”

“@SawyerMerritt @SpaceX I and all employees of SpaceX passed random drug testing for years. NASA received all those results.”

“@yousuck2020 @SpaceX That’s the first BFR airframe/tank barrel section made of a new carbon fiber material”

“@Erdayastronaut @rweb11742 The most amazing thing about rocket engines is that they *sometimes* don’t blow up! The amount of power going through them boggles the mind.”

“@Teslarati No matter what, we need to pressurize the production system. Rocket design is relatively easy, making one is hard, making many is extremely hard. Manufacturing is underrated.”

“@raines1220 LiDAR also does not work well in snow, rain or dust due to reflection scatter. That’s why Waymos stop working in any heavy precipitation. As I have said many times, there is a role for LiDAR in some circumstances and I personally oversaw the development of LiDAR for the SpaceX”

“@WholeMarsBlog @Gfilche There will be lots of technical detail & cool hardware demos”

“@RationalEtienne @Adamklotz_ SpaceX needs to pass through a deep chasm of negative cash flow over the next year or so to make Starlink financially viable. Every new satellite constellation in history has gone bankrupt. We hope to be the first that does not.”

“@existentialcoms Combined Tesla+SpaceX market cap is now over $1.2T, which means “$4.9B” is less than 0.4% of combined company value”

“RT @cb_doge: For the first time ever, there is a rocket capable of establishing a permanent base on Mars. https://t.co/Xbj6A7GA8j”

“@GailAlfarATX Starship has 33 engines! If an engine failure is isolated, then many engines greatly increases reliability (Starship only loses <3% of thrust). If not, then reliability is terrible. The difference is at least 2 orders of magnitude.”

“@Erdayastronaut We’ve already done a lot of iteration on ship. For rapid reusability, booster must return to launchpad, so inert mass impacts ascent, boostback & landing burns. Triple whammy. Also, booster flight rate is ~5X that of ship, so multiple mass $ cost by 5.”

“@teslaownersSV @BillyM2k @WholeMarsBlog It sure is hard to find a news source that’s accurate, relevant & not totally depressing! Old-school version of The Economist & Jon Stewart Daily Show / Colbert Report were great.”

“@existentialcoms That article was pushed as propaganda to counter IMF study showing fossil fuel subsidies to be $5 trillion/year. Even if $4.9B was true, combined market cap of Tesla & SpaceX is $80B. Where did the other $75B come from? Ass 🎩 …”

“@karpathy @WholeMarsBlog Same”

“Deeply honored and appreciative of the trust that @NASA has placed in @SpaceX for the future of human spaceflight”
