“Starship is the first rocket design where success in making life multiplanetary is in the set of possible outcomes”

“There is a good chance of achieving full reusability of Starship this year. Full and immediate reflight of Starship, along with orbital refilling, probably happens next year. This is the fundamental breakthrough needed to make life multiplanetary. [@cb_doge] BREAKING: Elon Musk says he believes the ship will achieve reusability this year and that the entire stack—ship and booster—will achieve rapid reusability next year. This is the fundamental breakthrough required for life to become multiplanetary. )”

“🚀 [@NASA_LSP] Welcome to the LSP Fleet, Starship! @SpaceX's Starship rocket has been added to our NASA Launch Services II contract as part of the annual on-ramp process, which allows providers to introduce launch services not currently on contract. https://www.nasa.gov/news-release/nasa-awards-launch-services-contract-for-spacex-starship/”

“That is the goal [@XFreeze] Elon Musk: "The goal of SpaceX is to make life multiplanetary in order to extend the probable lifespan of consciousness That's been the goal from the beginning; you can see videos of me talking about this 20 years ago We need to transport a lot of people and equipment to Mars.… https://x.com/i/web/status/2010042446122758540”

“@PPathole Most people have no idea Starship exists or how large this beast is! Body diameter (9m or 30 ft) is bigger than a 747 or A380. Starship thrust & mass are more than double Saturn V moon rocket. Making life multiplanetary means massive rockets. Got to be done.”

“SpaceX is accelerating rapidly. When Starship is launching several times a day in a few years, SpaceX will be ~99% of all Earth payload mass to orbit, even if the others triple their current launch rate. [@FutureJurvetson] 🚀 T͢h͢e͢ ͢Q͢3͢ ͢L͢a͢u͢n͢c͢h͢ ͢R͢e͢p͢o͢r͢t͢ ͢j͢u͢s͢t͢ ͢c͢a͢m͢e͢ ͢o͢u͢t͢🚀 For kg launched to orbit, SpaceX has 97% share for the U.S. and 83% globally. The eight Chinese launchers add up to 8.6%. Looking into the graph's magnifying box, IDF just nudged past Rocket Lab. https://x.com/i/web/status/1994495568291532883”

“@SpaceX Major launchpad upgrades should be complete in about a month, then another month of rocket testing on pad, then flight 2 of Starship”

“Stretch goal for Starship V4 is 300 tons of thrust per engine with 33 engines, so 10,000 tons of total thrust. That is 3 times the power of the Saturn V Moon rocket. [@XFreeze] SpaceX’s Starship is already one of the biggest flying objects ever built and it’s still getting bigger • With Starship 4, total size could grow ~10–20% • Raptor thrust jumps ~20%, nearing 9,000 tons at sea level • Enough to send 200+ tons to useful orbit • Fully &… https://x.com/i/web/status/2014607481159463407”

“Protect the light of consciousness [@XFreeze] ELON MUSK EXPLAINS THE REAL PURPOSE OF SPACEX "SpaceX is about advancing rocket technology to the point where we can extend life and consciousness beyond Earth to the moon, to Mars, eventually to other star systems And I think we should always view consciousness, life as we… https://x.com/i/web/status/2014375895415586964”

“Technically, two parts: Starship is the spaceship/upper stage & Super Heavy is the rocket booster needed to escape Earth’s deep gravity well (not needed for other planets or moons)”

“@blueskykites @Grimezsz @WholeMarsBlog @SpaceXMR @musky_meme @CovelloMassimo @SpaceX @Kristennetten @EliBurton_ @Erdayastronaut @28delayslater @TeslaAndDoge @bevedoni @TeslaHype @OwenSparks_ @RationalEtienne It’s true – I do think a lot about rocket engine chamber pressure ahaha”

“RT @SpaceX: The Road to Making Life Multiplanetary: an update from @elonmusk on SpaceX's plan to reach Mars https://t.co/d2cnsVKK80”

“@Erdayastronaut @thesheetztweetz @BryceSpaceTech @SpaceX @Arianespace @ArianeGroup @roscosmos @northropgrumman @ulalaunch @torybruno @isro @RocketLab The Starship fleet is designed to achieve over 1000 times more payload to orbit than all other rockets on Earth combined. Almost no one understands this.”

“@rookisaacman Starship is the first rocket/spaceship with the potential to make life multiplanetary”

“@markusdd5 Given that several companies make advanced chips, but no companies have ever made fully reusable rockets or achieved SpaceX scale, I think Starship is harder, but we shall see. Terafab will technically be two fabs, each making only one chip design. This greatly simplifies”

“RT @SpaceX: Liftoff of Starship's seventh flight test. The Super Heavy booster utilized flight proven hardware for the first time, reusing…”

“RT @SpaceX: Starship’s ninth flight test marked a major milestone for reuse with the first flight-proven Super Heavy booster launching from…”

“@SpaceActivist88 @JeffGreason @peterrhague @SpaceNotJohn SpaceX will colonize Mars. The fundamental question is whether Earth civilization can maintain its technology level long enough for the colony to grow on its own, even if the supply ships stop coming. If yes, then humanity will pass the single-planet Fermi Great Filter.”

“RT @cb_doge: BREAKING: MrBeast just posted a new video touring SpaceX’s massive Starship rocket manufacturing facility in Texas. https://t.…”

“@MuskUniversity Based on the Falcon launch plan for next year, SpaceX will deliver ~90% of all Earth payload to orbit. Starship will take that to >99% in future years. These magnitudes are madness to consider, but necessary to make consciousness multiplanetary.”

“@thesheetztweetz @BryceSpaceTech @SpaceX @roscosmos @Arianespace @ArianeGroup @northropgrumman @RocketLab @ulalaunch @VirginOrbit @torybruno Upmass is what matters. One Starship will lift what all Falcons did in Q2 on a single flight.”

“@Austen A surprising number of people don’t understand what a profound level unlock full reusability is. It is the holy grail of rocketry and the fundamental breakthrough needed to make life multiplanetary. Starship is designed for full & rapid reusability – launch, land, refill…”

“@ThierryBreton In all seriousness, SpaceX hopes to offer travel to Mars to anyone who wants to go, bearing in mind that it will be like a long sea voyage in centuries past – dangerous and uncomfortable, but great adventure! Becoming multiplanetary ensures the long-term survival of life.”

“@TJ_Cooney @lrocket @SpaceX @FelixSchlang @MarcusHouseGame Tom is great & was instrumental in developing early versions of Merlin & Kestrel, but not later versions of Merlin or Starship/Raptor”

“RT @DimaZeniuk: SpaceX just conducted a static fire of Booster 16 ahead of Starship Flight 10 https://t.co/nvXtqFUicF”

“@WholeMarsBlog Great progress by the @SpaceX team towards making life multiplanetary!”

“@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.”

“@Everman SpaceX will prob build 30 to 40 rocket cores for ~300 missions over 5 years. Then BFR takes over & Falcon retires. Goal of BFR is to enable anyone to move to moon, Mars & eventually outer planets.”

“@Drew78823936 @Erdayastronaut @DJSnM @RocketTenor @NASA @SpaceX @Space_Station @Commercial_Crew Probably right. Starship rate of progress far exceeds Falcon & Dragon, although they’re critical to getting there. dInnovation/dt is what matters long-term.”

“@RichardDawkins Starship is the first rocket/spacecraft capable of making life multiplanetary. What really matters for the preservation and extension of consciousness is extending it beyond Earth to the rest of the solar system and, ultimately, to millions of stars.”

“@SpceEnthusiast @tjmurphy_mit @thesheetztweetz @ExploreMars @SpaceX @TheeSpaceDude Over time, outer 20 will have ~300 tons of thrust & inner 8 ~210, so roughly 7500 tons total at sea level or 1.5 T/W for booster+ship”

“@bartjehoel @djenkins6 Correct, pure electric. Wish orbital rockets could be so too, but there’s no escaping Newton’s Third Law. SpaceX is already developing high efficiency CO2 capture with H2O to form liquid CH4 (methane) & O2. Critical for propellant production at Mars Base Alpha.”

“Millions of people needed for Mars colony, so 80k+ would just be the number moving to Mars per year http://t.co/rwMuzVEK http://news.yahoo.com/huge-mars-colony-eyed-spacex-founder-elon-musk-120626263.html”

“RT @tvd33c: With Starship, humanity has a rocket design capable of making life multiplanetary. https://t.co/36EJhy2FVJ”

“@LytovchenkoSerg @John_Gardi @Erdayastronaut Rocket booster temperatures won’t go much above 600 Kelvin on hottest parts of main body & maybe around 1200K on base, which uncooled steel can handle. Starship is around 1700K for a Mach 25 entry, so needs shielding of some kind.”
