“@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.”
“@Erdayastronaut @vincent13031925 We saw them a lot launching from Kwajalein in the early days of SpaceX”

“@MarsMeditation @RationalEtienne @PPathole The S-curve appears to be entering the logarithmic phase”

“RT @SpaceX: Liftoff of Transporter-16! https://t.co/PpIorZ0ZL6”
“@flcnhvy @alvianchoiri We’re not seeing notable differences yet. I think the boosters could probably do 100+ reflights. Some of the (small) composite helium tanks would need to be replaced. Maybe turbopump hot sections.”
“@teslaownersSV Starship is the kind of thing that makes people from little kids to seniors excited about the future!”
“@flcnhvy @Neopork85 @Caspar_Stanley @ErcXspace @MarcusHouseGame @FelixSchlang @C_Bass3d @nickhenning3d @SpaceX It might be used in some areas. ITAR laws prevent us from being too specific about solutions.”
“@canraptor_ @SpaceX @blueorigin @RocketLab There are good engineers at Boeing and Lockheed, but we have to get rid of the cost-plus contracting system that incentivizes maximizing costs!”
“@SciGuySpace If the rest of the year goes well, SpaceX will deliver ~90% of all Earth’s payload to orbit. China will do ~6%, rest of the world combined ~4%.”
“@nicebit_net @valleyhack If you get past Mars, the asteroids, moons of Jupiter & Saturn, inevitably you reach Uranus!”
“RT @StarshipGazer: Up close with Booster 19 rolling out to Massey's test site tonight for initial pressure and cryo proof testing in prepar…”
“@Neopork85 @SpaceX @MarcusHouseGame Most likely, all flaps will fold after landing to reduce wind tip over force. There may be some cases where flaps deployed help stability (change in wind direction), in which case one or more flaps will extend.”
“RT @SpaceX: Deployment of 28 @Starlink satellites confirmed”
“RT @tetsuoai: SpaceX just officially shifted its #1 priority to building a self-growing city on the Moon. Not a base. Not an outpost. A cit…”
“@jhall @SpaceX @Starlink Insane government waste of taxpayer dollars!”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX There thousands of changes from flight 2 to 3, but this is a good summary of major ones”
“@BnOrdhaug @yasin_shafiei @thejackbeyer @NASASpaceflight @BocaChicaGal @NicAnsuini That’s the plan. We’re taking a little risk there, as engine isolation was done as retrofit, so not as good as on Booster 9.”
“@Erdayastronaut The Super Heavy booster is only needed on Earth, so think of this as just “Starship” & sometimes it needs a boost, hence Super Heavy”
“RT @SawyerMerritt: X is offering a trip to Mars on @SpaceX's Starship rocket if you get a perfect March Madness bracket, or, alternatively,…”
“@WholeMarsBlog Corporate shell game”
“@CanzyD High probability of this particular rocket getting destroyed by Dragon supersonic abort test. Otherwise, at least 20 or 30 missions for Falcon 9. Starship will take over before the F9 fleet reaches end of life.”
“@TeslaGong @ajtourville @PPathole @Adamklotz_ @AaronS5_ @crheller @SpaceX Some traffic could just go terminal -> satellite -> satellite -> terminal and never touch the regular Internet”
“@MarioNawfal Let’s not get carried away! SpaceX will probably do ~99% of Earth payload to orbit in 2026, despite the rest of industry growing. Assuming rocket launches by competitors grow at their current rate, SpaceX will probably do 99.9% of payload to orbit in 10 years, but I hope I’m…”
“RT @MarcusHouse: How crazy is it that this is almost "normal". When SpaceX first mentioned they would try to catch vehicles out of the sky…”
“RT @teslaownersSV: “My plan is to use the money to get humanity to Mars and preserve the light of consciousness.” Elon Musk https://t.co/…”
“@WholeMarsBlog Most training in the future will actually be inference for the sole purpose of training (aka synthetic data generation)”
“@EvaFoxU @WholeMarsBlog Bringing a new product to volume production is 1% inspiration & 99% perspiration. You do still need that critical seed of inspiration, but it’s fun & takes ~100 people. Production takes >10,000 people & hurts like hell until the gigantic cybernetic collective runs smoothly.”
“@SciGuySpace Amazing amount of useful work by the SpaceX team”
“RT @SpaceX: Watch Falcon 9 launch our second @Starlink mission of the evening from pad 40 in Florida https://t.co/ayvAvIUtVd https://x.com/i/broadcasts/1YqxolVagwZKv”
“RT @cb_doge: "I hold one passport now & forever: America. I will live & die here. Or Mars (part of America)." 一 Elon Musk https://t.co/…”
“@Benioff Starship should be able to deliver around 300 GW per year of solar-powered AI satellites to orbit, maybe 500 GW. The “per year” part is what makes this such a big deal. Average US electricity consumption is around 500 GW, so at 300 GW/year, AI in space would exceed the entire US”
“RT @spacesudoer: Incredible footage of the SpaceX Dragon Endurance capsule undocking from the International Space Station. https://t.co/f45… null”
“RT @AstronomyVibes: “ The first Starship to Mars will be named "Heart of Gold" ” 一 Elon Musk ☄️ https://t.co/RlDFZS9yve”
“@eugenelee3 @PPathole @SpaceX @Tesla Yeah, not scalable. My grad student idea was to try to use advanced chip making equipment to create high energy density capacitors accurate to molecular level.”
“RT @Kristennetten: “Everything that @elonmusk does with @tesla & @SpaceX is absolutely brilliant .. he is thee Einstein of our age, that’s…”
“@TJ_Cooney That said, most Starship spaceports will probably need to be ~20 miles / 30km offshore for acceptable noise levels, especially for frequent daily flights, as would occur for point to point flights on Earth”
“@ZealotOcelot @ajtourville @SpaceX SpaceX will deliver ~90% of all of Earth’s mass to orbit this year. Once Starship is flying regularly, SpaceX will deliver >99% of mass to orbit, unless some other company creates a large, fully reusable rocket.”
“@cb_doge Yeah, looking forward to the official launch of Starlink in Indonesia!”
“@flcnhvy @teslaownersSV @raytech247 @WholeMarsBlog That would be like licensing Battlestar Galactica. Actually building continuously evolving gargantuan factories is the hard part. Lots of people who worked at Tesla Gigafactories now work at competitors, but none of those companies have made one.”
“RT @MarioNawfal: 🚨 TESLA + STARLINK = INTERNET EVERYWHERE (YES, EVEN IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE) Tesla just got the green light from the FCC…”

“RT @SpaceX: Falcon 9 lands on the Just Read the Instructions droneship off the coast of The Bahamas https://t.co/h5Ju4ndXSj”
“@Peter_J_Beck @torybruno @Starlinksat223 @Erdayastronaut Yeah. Merlin, using a single pintle injector with cold, liquid propellant, needs a longer chamber than Raptor, which uses a large number of coaxial injectors, despite Merlin being less than half thrust. Propellant enters Raptor chamber as hot gas that’s already mixed.”
“@Erdayastronaut @CptnCrutch5373 @Kalzsom Super Heavy rocket will be much like Falcon 9, but the Ship is a strange combination of Dragon, F9 & a skydiver.”
