“@ID_AA_Carmack The right way to grade any technology is not comparing it to competitors (too easy), but comparing it to the limit of physics. That is, for example, how we grade Starlink latency, which shows that there is still a *lot* of room for improvement! Same for $/ton to Mars.”
“@harrison_astro We can do that partially, but detailed rocket technology is considered advanced weaponry (same tech as nuclear missiles), so there are more limitations than at Tesla”
“Researchers at @NASA propose using @SpaceX Falcon/Dragon for Mars sample return mission http://t.co/U6LNKyF4Jr http://news.yahoo.com/red-dragon-mars-sample-return-mission-could-launch-114405239.html”
“@WholeMarsBlog Both TSMC and Samsung are great companies. It is an honor to work with them.”
“RT @DimaZeniuk: SpaceX launched 138 rockets in 2024, averaging one every 2.6 days https://t.co/z8MzTC6YhQ”
“@WholeMarsBlog Eventually, you will probably be able to upload a good approximation of your memories & mind state to “the cloud” with the ability to download it to a humanoid robot. You obviously won’t be quite the same as you are today.”
“RT @Gwynne_Shotwell: From learning to land a rocket to flying the same booster 30 times! Congrats to the @SpaceX team for continuing to ma…”
“@SamTwits @TeslaOwnersEBay @Kristennetten @RationalEtienne @EvaFoxU @JohnnaCrider1 @TeslaChillMode @CodingMark @Model3Owners @WholeMarsBlog @AustinTeslaClub Due to lack of banging, civilization might ended with a whimper! Adult diaper sales growth is much higher than baby diaper sales growth. https://t.co/eYk3nJNf6s https://www.reuters.com/article/us-diapers-adults-focus-idUSKBN1X10G0”
“@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.”
“@Erdayastronaut @Blamblas @latimes @SpaceX @blueorigin Exactly. Mars propellant production will combine atmospheric CO2 & water (ice) to make CH4 (methane) & O2. Will do same on Earth long-term. Short-term, each Falcon flight uses roughly same fuel mass as a 747 flight. Falcon is ~71% oxygen & Starship is ~78%, so mostly not fuel.”
“@wintonARK @SciGuySpace We’re still going to Mars and the timeframe for building a self-growing city there is still about the same at 20 to 30 years. It’s possible that revenue from lunar activities might actually accelerate Mars.”
“@Erdayastronaut Hot-staging gives the best performance, but needs to be done without blowing up the booster!”
“@RationalEtienne @JedIKni64072970 @archillect @OpenAI @austinbarnard45 @SpaceX Ok”

“Falcon Heavy side boosters can use most of the same airframe as Falcon 9, but center core needs to be buffed up a lot for transfer loads.”
“RT @Starlink: Starlink Mobile is providing data for video, voice, and messaging services in areas where terrestrial service is unavailable…”
“@EPavlic @SpaceX @teslaownersSV @DJpowers69 @NASAMars @TheMarsSociety @WholeMarsBlog @DimaZeniuk @AIXBird @Rainmaker1973 @StarshipGazer We will be there one day”
“@Erdayastronaut @i_gvf @SciGuySpace Exactly. Chartering a dedicated 747 flight around the world costs less than buying a small, single engine turboprop plane. In the same way, a giant reusable rocket flight is way cheaper than a tiny expendable rocket that can be used only once.”
“@RGVaerialphotos Imagine seeing this view on your way to Mars ✨”
“@Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @BocaChicaGal @TheFavoritist The ship rings are thicker than they need to be (for now), so same thickness works for booster & ship for hoop stress. Booster lower tank will have longitudinal stiffeners to prevent buckling.”
“@sampullara @Starlink Agreed. I guess Starlink could offer that directly too.”
“RT @spacesudoer: Starship hot-staging is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. @elonmusk https://t.co/1oa7wa7S2n”
“@MarcusHouse @artzius All Raptors on booster, whether fixed or gimbaling, would be the same. 33*230 gets ~7600 tons of thrust & T/W of ~1.5.”
“@SamTwits @TeslaOwnersEBay @Kristennetten @RationalEtienne @EvaFoxU @JohnnaCrider1 @TeslaChillMode @CodingMark @Model3Owners @WholeMarsBlog @AustinTeslaClub This is a major problem! Between civilization ending with a bang or a whimper, this trend suggests the latter.”
“@thejackbeyer @MarcusHouse @artzius Center engines on ship will be same as booster engines. This is basically Raptor 2. Raptor Vacuum would be only variant. Tbd as to whether to commonize R-Vac with Raptor 2 (more thrust), keep same or tighten throat (more Isp). Adding 3 more R-Vac to ship with max Isp maybe …”
“@SamTwits @Erdayastronaut @PPathole @vincent13031925 Long chain hydrocarbons, like kerosene, have excellent volumetric energy density, but what you really want for rockets is best way to bind hydrogen, which is CH4. Also, easy to make & store CH4+O2 from CO2+H2O, which are abundant on Mars.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Same 😂”
“@xiang_aw @WholeMarsBlog This does seem like the opposite of open. OpenAI is essentially captured by Microsoft.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Asking a Magic 8-Ball whether we should change rates is ACTUALLY better than the Fed!”
“@Erdayastronaut @ValkyrieBaron11 @flcnhvy @NASASpaceflight A fully & rapidly reusable orbital rocket is fundamental to extending life beyond Earth. Propellant cost is roughly a 1000th of vehicle cost (unless using a foolish propellant). Same principle as cars, planes, boats, etc.”
“@DJSnM @RocketTenor @NASA @SpaceX @Space_Station @Commercial_Crew For cargo missions, propulsive land landing should be no problem. Doesn’t have same safety criticality as crew.”
“@StarofElysium @SamTalksTesla @RationalEtienne @chrish7985 @rlyrlysryDave I don’t have an “emerald mine”, nor was I given free money from anyone, inheritance or otherwise.
