“@BasedBeffJezos @Scobleizer @trengriffin The difficulty of communicating with Mars varies tremendously, with the worst case being when it is on the opposite side of the Sun from Earth. For terabit-level bandwidth, the best option is probably a series of laser communication satellites at varying distances from the Sun…”

“RT @SpaceX: Deployment of 28 @Starlink satellites confirmed https://t.co/tY3nL1YIgl”
“@SpaceXFan97 @alexmd2 @SpaceX Much above 300 bar main chamber pressure means extreme oxygen preburner pressure of 700 to 800+ bar. Definitely pushing the limit of known physics.”

“RT @SpaceX: Splashdown of Dragon confirmed! https://t.co/XG1ANHLtMN”
“@Erdayastronaut @SciGuySpace Last launch aborted due to slightly high power. Possibly, but not obviously, related to today. This vehicle has seen a lot of wear, so today isn’t a big surprise. Life leader rockets are used only for internal missions. Won’t risk non-SpaceX satellites.”
“@PPathole @alvianchoiri Roughly a week or two turnaround is all that’s needed to meet max launch demand. Starship Super Heavy is designed for reflight in less than an hour.”
“@ajtourville It is how most of the space industry makes rocket tanks. Works, but is expensive and production is slow.”
“RT @teslaownersSV: “SpaceX is the railroad that will enable millions of opportunities for others on Mars, just like the Union Pacific Railr…”

“@ashleevance @blueorigin @SpaceX @RocketLab @Firefly_Space @stoke_space Good hope for the future of humanity in space!”
“@SciGuySpace Said another way, Falcon Heavy has 2/3 thrust of Saturn V. Starship/Super Heavy will have double thrust of Saturn V.”
“@sampullara @Starlink Agreed. I guess Starlink could offer that directly too.”
“RT @SpaceX: View of the @Space_Station and a docked Dragon spacecraft as Crew-11 approaches https://t.co/Bw255hy66R”

“@MarshaBlackburn @DOGE Your support and that of the whole DOGE caucus is much appreciated!”
“@Erdayastronaut @rweb11742 Merlin is a strong local maximum design, but kerosene is suboptimal fuel, no matter what you do. What matters is cost per ton to Mars. CH4 is the only choice imo. Important: O2/CH4 allows OF ratio of ~3.5 vs ~2.5 for kerosene, so ~78% of propellant is oxygen.”
“@WholeMarsBlog There will be some buying of cars for individual ownership, but self-driving cars will be >90% of miles driven”

“RT @spacesudoer: Starship Flight 9 Mission Profile. Launch T - 17 hours. https://t.co/xSSuxttGvX”
“@Erdayastronaut @PelleBrannvall @flcnhvy @Neopork85 @Caspar_Stanley @ErcXspace @MarcusHouseGame @FelixSchlang @C_Bass3d @nickhenning3d @SpaceX There are sensitive elements, but they’re on the inside. Also, a good telephoto lens will be able to capture what I’ve posted. And yeah, anyone who can reverse engineer what I’ve posted doesn’t need to reverse engineer!”
“RT @spacesudoer: Starship hot-staging is one of the most beautiful things I've ever seen. @elonmusk https://t.co/1oa7wa7S2n”
“RT @DimaZeniuk: SpaceX just conducted a static fire of Booster 16 ahead of Starship Flight 10 https://t.co/nvXtqFUicF”
“@Teslarati @13ericralph31 Unmodified water tower machines do not work well for orbital rockets, as mass efficiency is critical for the latter, but not the former. Hopper, for example, was made of 12.5mm steel vs 4mm for SN1 orbital design. Optimized skins will be <2mm in places across a 9000mm diameter.”
“RT @Starlink: Starlink is ideal as a backup option in case of emergency, keeping you connected when you need it most.”
“@ApoStructura The Starship 4 crewed variant will have >1000m^3 of pressurized volume, so 10% more than the Space Station”
“@WholeMarsBlog @CalPERS They are doing this for social reasons, at the expense of the state and their constituents”
“@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.”
“RT @cb_doge: For the first time ever, there is a rocket capable of establishing a permanent base on Mars. https://t.co/9oWV8o3rHJ”
“@Patryn23 @Blobifie A reminder that rapid evolution of technology is the only way to win. Those who don’t innovate rapidly are doomed to fail. The next Starship launch is version 3, which is radically better than version 2. Then, in a few years, V4 will double the payload of V3.”
“@jamesdouma @DrKnowItAll16 I wish we were never down, but Starlink will keep improving rapidly. Our goal is a consistent <20ms latency to major data centers within a region. This is extremely difficult, but we will get there. Bandwidth will also improve with each generation of satellites and user…”
