15 years of Elon, fully searchable. The production archive uses Supabase as the source of truth, with 94,952 indexed tweets available in development as a full-archive fallback and a curated annotation layer for context, theory, and how major claims aged.
“SpaceX is a separate company and they did even claim that SpaceX/Starlink broke any laws. Purely capricious.”
“It's starting to feel kinda normal to reuse rockets. Good. That's how it is for cars & airplanes and how it should be for rockets.”
“@FedorovMykhailo @SpaceX @SpaceXStarlink @Honda @ChampionGen @westinghouse @DuroMaxPower Updating software to reduce peak power consumption, so Starlink can be powered from car cigarette lighter. Mobile roaming enabled, so phased array antenna can maintain signal while on moving vehicle.”
“Love seeing the scars of the rocket https://t.co/y5FQrLcV9B”

“With Internet access, you can learn anything and sell your good & services to a global market [@MarioNawfal] ELON: STARLINK WILL DO MORE TO LIFT PEOPLE OUT OF POVERTY THAN ANY NGO Elon: “By enabling high-speed, low-latency and affordable Internet globally, Starlink will do more to educate and lift people out of poverty than any NGO ever.” He’s not exaggerating. The data backs him”
“Most people still don’t know that Starlink offers fast, low latency, affordable connectivity almost anywhere on Earth! [@SawyerMerritt] NEWS: In a first for any Elon Musk company, SpaceX has created its first Super Bowl ad for @Starlink.”

“@rustyrockets Of course. They don’t like competition.”
“@mcuban Ok, I will ask Tesla & SpaceX to inquire further”
“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.”
“Support Starlink in Namibia! [@LaurenDreyer] If you want to see @Starlink in Namibia, please email licensing@cran.na and voice your support for Government Gazette 8795, Notice 897 before Dec 12.

“We have a lot of star things 😂 [@DimaZeniuk] ELON MUSK: “We kind of have a lot of Star things, you know, so we get Starlink, Starship. Starbase is probably the coolest place on Earth. It's only like three feet above sea level. So we built a gigantic rocket factory and two giant launch towers down by the river, literally… https://x.com/i/web/status/1998658224027771107”
“@SpaceX Perhaps inevitable”
“Launch auto-sequence initiated (aka the holy mouse-click) for 3:45 liftoff #FalconHeavy”
“Will be interesting to see how this is used [@ID_AA_Carmack] Starlink announced a $5/month plan that gives unlimited usage at 500kbits/s. Modern apps and web pages would immediately back up every buffer and make for a painful experience, but it is fun to consider optimizing inside that tight box (in the 90s, 4x ISDN was high end!).”
“@WholeMarsBlog I’m a big believer in citizen journalism and following individual journalists over publications!”
“True [@XFreeze] Elon will never stifle competition - SpaceX literally proves it with every launch Here's what most people don't know: SpaceX launches satellites for Starlink's direct competitors - OneWeb, Amazon's Project Kuiper, and others......on the exact same Falcon 9 rockets, with the”

“Congrats to SpaceX for completing & documented the 57 items required by the FAA for Flight 2 of Starship! Worth noting that 6 of the 63 items refer to later flights. https://t.co/YlPg3ywCZE”
“It is a hard path to 100GW/year of AI in space, but we know what to do [@Teslaconomics] This statement mind boggles Ron Baron. Elon is talking about putting 25% of U.S.’s electricity output of solar powered AI satellites into orbit. Best believe SpaceX’s Starlink and Tesla’s energy business is going to benefit materially from this. “We see a path to putting 100”
“Gateway to Mars”
“@WholeMarsBlog I try not to pick fights, but I do finish them”
