“@WholeMarsBlog Cool”
“Try https://t.co/op5s4ZikGJ. Post links on your social media and websites. http://Grokipedia.com [@teslaownersSV] Grokipedia organic traffic is skyrocketing. 20K → 60K daily visits in January. Nearly 3× growth in less than 30 days. 🚀🔥”
“@PPathole @SpaceX We have a very talented team”
“@WholeMarsBlog Manufacturing is so hard. I have the utmost respect for those who build things.”
“True 😀 https://t.co/CS6semhKm6 https://www.space.com/41871-elon-musk-spacex-bfr-spaceship-science-fiction-legacy.html”
“Starship SN4 passed static fire”
“@DrPhiltill Minimizing $/ton to the surface of Mars is the fundamental optimization”
“@SpaceX @tristaneaton human kind”
“Will be at SXSW Sat/Sun with Jonah & Lisa, who created Westworld. Jonah made an incredible short reel of Falcon Heavy & Starman. Releases tmrw aft.”
“@stclairashley @libsoftiktok Sometimes it thinks rocket pics are dicks, which is … crazy of course”
“@AustinTeslaClub That is the goal. Our official name is actually Space Exploration Technologies. SpaceX is short form.”
“@WholeMarsBlog More solar + batteries needed. Batteries are great at dealing with peak demand.”
“And Mars too”
“@WholeMarsBlog We could’ve made a 600 mile Model S 12 months ago, but that would’ve made the product worse imo, as 99.9% of time you’d be carrying unneeded battery mass, which makes acceleration, handling & efficiency worse. Even our 400+ mile range car is more than almost anyone will use.”
“@peters8620 @stillgray @ScottAdamsSays I had OG C19 before vaccines came out and it was basically a mild cold. Then had J&J vaccine with no bad effects, except my arm hurt briefly. First mRNA booster was ok, but the second one crushed me.”
“In advance of this, please try to hack Starlink & Tesla Mothership!”
“@FonsDK @WholeMarsBlog @jasondebolt @SawyerMerritt @teslaownersSV @forwardcap @farzyness @garyblack00 Reaching volume production & achieving positive cash flow is insanely hard”
“@Teslarati We’re going to try landing Starship on the moon with enough propellant to return to Earth”
“@WholeMarsBlog I have yet to see an ESG list that *isn’t* fraudulent”
“Aiming for 10 Falcon flights in a month by end of this year, then 12 per month next year”
“@SpaceX @Space_Station It’s called the Space “Station”, but it’s actually moving around Earth at ~25 times the speed of sound or ~10 times faster than a rifle bullet”
“@MarioNawfal Starlink will still work”
“@JimPethokoukis Good point. SpaceX & Tesla would probably have died, since both narrowly escaped bankruptcy in 2008.”
“RT @MarshaBlackburn: The Department of Education does not run a single school, yet the federal government wastes $68 billion a year and emp…”
“@WholeMarsBlog Ramping production (as always) will be the challenge, not demand”
“@SawyerMerritt An obviously disingenuous response. Not cool of them to try (for the third time) to impede SpaceX’s progress by lawfare.”
“@NASASpaceflight Unlike its aircraft division, which is fine, the FAA space division has a fundamentally broken regulatory structure. Their rules are meant for a handful of expendable launches per year from a few government facilities. Under those rules, humanity will never get to Mars.”
“Mission looks good. Started deploying the 10 Iridium satellites. Rocket is stable on the droneship.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Exactly”
“Good summary of rocket landing history. There were two successful water landings much earlier, but they didn't survive long. https://t.co/N6kxxQeFby https://x.com/verge/status/879410754511831040”
“@birdabo A friend of mine suggested that we do a light show with the Starlink satellites one of these days. Would look cool.”
“@PPathole @SpaceX That’s our initial interstage design that we scrapped”
“@thesheetztweetz Starlink does work on vehicles in motion, including planes, but not yet reliably”
“Long exposure of rocket ascent, reentry from space and landing burn. (Credit @johnkrausphotos) https://t.co/X24k3han8M https://www.instagram.com/p/BdrZtc5AhB3/”
“Worth noting that Boeing/Lockheed ("Other US" on chart) get a billion dollar annual subsidy even if they launch nothing. SpaceX does not. https://t.co/Mi27ZnYLRJ https://x.com/concofahmet/status/885617156473450496”
“@LadoBitnar I am highly confident that we can send several uncrewed Starships to Mars in 2 years. If those ships don’t increment the crater count on Mars, then crewed ships can be sent in 4 years.”
“@SciGuySpace @raikohtech I am confident that Starship will land humans on Mars. That path is clear. But what really matters is securing the future of consciousness, not just getting a small number of people to Mars. That probably requires getting over 100,000 people and 1M tons of cargo to Mars.”
“@SpaceX Another 49 Starlinks reach orbit”
“While I have great fondness for @NASA, they will constitute less than 5% of our revenue next year. Commercial Starlink is by far our largest contributor to revenue. Some people have claimed that SpaceX gets “subsidized” by NASA. This is absolutely false. The SpaceX team won… https://t.co/5ebFse5Eg4 https://x.com/i/web/status/1997401910635278368”
“Looking back at the sun from upper stage & Falcon 9 🚀 landed on drone ship Of Course I Still Love You https://t.co/sg3FXIDQJL”
“Mars V2 plan coming soon, which I think addresses the most fundamental flaw in V1: how to pay for development & operation of giant rockets https://t.co/yaITdVdpEc https://x.com/sciam/status/875756138121310208”
“@WholeMarsBlog Not intentional! We just wanted to show that you could theoretically convert the entire US vehicle fleet to electric using only the lithium in Nevada, a single state. Tesla will do lithium mining only as needed. We also found a way to extract lithium using NaCl (table salt).”
“@NuovaRealta @cleantechnica Will call when we reach Mars”
“Initially making one 200 metric ton thrust engine common across ship & booster to reach the moon as fast as possible. Next versions will split to vacuum-optimized (380+ sec Isp) & sea-level thrust optimized (~250 ton).”
“@WholeMarsBlog Absolutely”
“@SpacePadreIsle Starship is coming together!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Liar Lorenz”
“@SpaceX A high production rate solves many ills”
