15 years of Elon, fully searchable. The production archive uses Supabase as the source of truth, with 94,952 indexed tweets available in development as a full-archive fallback and a curated annotation layer for context, theory, and how major claims aged.
“@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”
“@WholeMarsBlog Ask and you shall receive https://t.co/nhzH9rXzBB”
“Astronaut spacesuit next to Crew Dragon https://t.co/Csmgx8Nn0t https://www.instagram.com/p/BYyvO2WA3Ra/”
“@WholeMarsBlog California has pushed hydrogen for a long time. Makes no sense.”
“This is significantly more than any country has launched with their entire rocket fleet in a year. Second is peak Soviet Union at ~500 tons. For a present day comparison, the rest of the world has delivered ~250 tons to orbit so far this year, mostly by China.”
“@Teslarati @ResidentSponge 💫 Starlink 💫”
“@WholeMarsBlog Sucks that I had to sell so much Tesla stock to do so (sigh)”
“@BillyM2k @WholeMarsBlog Oh man that would be an epic troll!!”
“@JonErlichman 5 years ago. We need to accelerate progress towards fully reusable rockets. Cost per ton to orbit needs to improve by >1000% from where Falcon is today for there to be a self-sustaining city on Mars.”
“@ErcXspace @SpaceX @NASASpaceflight @Erdayastronaut Transparent aluminum (ALON) might be cool”
“@PPathole @SpaceX SpaceX team is doing great work! One day, the true measure of success will be that Starship flights are commonplace.”
“The 20th & final Dragon 1 mission is complete”
“@WholeMarsBlog 10.69.3 will actually be a major upgrade. We’re keeping .69 just because haha.”
“@WholeMarsBlog 11 lifetimes ago”
“@gvanrossum Flight code for the rockets and Starlink satellites is written in C and C++. Python is used where runtime performance is less important than rapid iteration and ease of use.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Ships to Tesla employees tomorrow, then progressively wider as confidence grows. We test as much as possible in simulation and with QA drivers, but reality is vastly more complex.”
“@SpaceX Hopefully flying tomorrow”
“@WholeMarsBlog All US cars that are capable of FSD will be enabled for a one month trial this week”
“Mars City Opposite of Earth. Dawn and dusk sky are blue on Mars and day sky is red. https://t.co/XHcZIdgqnb https://www.instagram.com/p/BZm_FXPg6YZ/”
“@SpaceX We will need to make a lot of improvements to have a chance of completing 48 launches next year!”
“Headed to Starship Cape Canaveral build site today”
“Falcon lands on droneship, but the lockout collet doesn't latch on one the four legs, causing it… https://t.co/DpXsRQWal9 https://www.instagram.com/p/BAqirNbwEc0/”
“@ErcXspace Very close to real! Arms are able to move during descent to match exact booster position. Catch point is off to side, in case catch fails – don’t want to hit launch mount. Booster is transferred back to launch mount for next flight. Designed to have <1 hour turnaround.”
“@MarioNawfal Tunnels will be important on Mars”
“@NASA @NASAInSight Congratulations! What an amazing track record of success with Mars!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Often, when we announce something, we hear simultaneous criticism that it’s already been done, but also that it’s impossible 🤣🤣”
“@SpaceX Last launch of 2020 coming up”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceForceDoD @SLDelta45 @SpaceX Falcon Heavy is a testament to the awesomeness of humanity”
“@Kristennetten @SpaceX I think we should try to catch the booster with the mechazilla arms next flight!”
“@jdeshetler @NASASpaceflight @SpaceX @BocaChicaGal Can be a little foggy sometimes :)”
“@ashleevance The amount SpaceX is requesting for a major battlefield advantage is less than the cost of one new GPS satellite. Ironically, GPS doesn’t work on battlefields, as the signal is easy to jam, but Starlink does.”
“May need to increase size of rocket storage hangar”
“SpaceX standard antenna production rises rapidly this year, so those with orders shouldn’t have to wait long. Note, Starlink can only support a limited number of users in an area, so best to order early.”
“RT @libsoftiktok: HOLY SHLIT Is this Jasmine Crockett doing a Nazi salute??? I’m sure the media will be all over this! https://t.co/2nTG9w… null”
“@MattWalshBlog It is insane how many people have asked me if the moon landings are fake. The are indeed obviously real. Indeed, just as real as the tragic fact that we haven’t been back there in half a century. We should have built a permanent base on the moon and Mars by now!”
“SpaceX main body tool for the BFR interplanetary spaceship https://t.co/WbTITI6WSu https://www.instagram.com/p/BhVk3y3A0yB/”
“@SpaceX @Space_Station About twice as much useful mass to orbit as rest of Earth combined”
“@PPathole @SpaceX The hard part about Raptor is simplifying it”
“@MattWallace888 My primary home is literally a ~$50k house in Boca Chica / Starbase that I rent from SpaceX. It’s kinda awesome though. Only house I own is the events house in the Bay Area. If I sold it, the house would see less use, unless bought by a big family, which might happen some day.”
