“@Erdayastronaut Yes, Booster 1 is a production pathfinder, figuring out how to build & transport 70 meter tall stage. Booster 2 will fly.”

“@IheartTesla @alex_avoigt @mike_zimon @WholeMarsBlog döner kebab”

“@kulpability Don’t need the cash. Devoting myself to Mars and Earth. Possession just weigh you down.”

“@Rogozin @SpaceX @JimBridenstine @roscosmos @NASA Спасибо, сэр, ха-ха. Мы рассчитываем на взаимовыгодное и процветающее долгосрочное сотрудничество. - Elon”

“@greg16676935420 @WholeMarsBlog 🤣”

“@teslaownersSV @SpaceX “It will be like this, but bigger””

“RT @SpaceX: SpaceX has acquired xAI, forming one of the most ambitious, vertically integrated innovation engines on (and off) Earth → https…”

“@DimaZeniuk It’s from Asimov’s Foundation. But I’m open to other ideas. Ultimately, it will be up to the people of Mars to decide.”

“@ID_AA_Carmack I have great admiration for John’s engineering ability! What he did with Armadillo was incredible. I’ve tried to convince him many times to join SpaceX, but he has always declined (sigh).”

“@ErcXspace @NASASpaceflight @SpaceX Unlikely for early ships to splashdown intact. Getting to orbit at all on first try would be a major win.”

“Colonizing Mars (thanks Prof Hubbard for creating this from my talk). Major changes to the plan coming soon. https://t.co/s59qMHUj5O http://online.liebertpub.com/doi/pdf/10.1089/space.2017.29009.emu”

“Starship Hopper will do vertical flight tests similar to the Falcon 9 Hopper https://t.co/5dCrGFqymR http://youtu.be/NoxiK7K28PU”

“@WholeMarsBlog Yeah”

“@PPathole @SpaceX Optimized, fully-reusable Starship is ~150t to same reference orbit as Saturn V. In expendable mode, Starship payload would be 250t to 300t.”

“@SpaceX Important to note that the induced mass (mass required by a given engine design that is not the engine itself) of Raptor 3, while far better than Raptor 2, still has a lot of room for improvement. Thrust will exceed 300 tons with Raptor 3.x (thrust/mass>200), enabling 10,000…”

“@BLKMDL3 @RationalEtienne @Adamklotz_ Once we can predict cash flow reasonably well, Starlink will IPO”

“@Erdayastronaut We are breaking ground soon on a second Raptor factory at SpaceX Texas test site. This will focus on volume production of Raptor 2, while California factory will make Raptor Vacuum & new, experimental designs.”

“@DavidSHolz @xenocosmography And how are we supposed to reach Mars if America goes de facto bankrupt?”

“@WholeMarsBlog Exactly”

“@itsALLrisky And that’s just for Earth! Mars has zero human population. We need a lot of people to become a multiplanet civilization.”

“@cnunezimages @SpaceX @SpaceIntellige3 Gateway to Mars”

“@WholeMarsBlog Three significant improvements to FSD will roll out roughly every two weeks. Should be really shining bright by late April or early May.”

“@stillgray @teslaownersSV @WholeMarsBlog Absolutely”

“@PPathole @SpaceX To extend the light of consciousness”

“@NASASpaceflight @SpaceX Yeah. To be frank, we did not expect the engine to survive a full duration run at that pressure. It is uncharted territory.”

“@cb_doge I will call and ask if it would not be too much trouble to allow Starlink to compete to provide Internet services to the people of India.”

“@CatherinScience I must admit to being congenitally optimistic (SpaceX & Tesla wouldn’t exist otherwise), but I think 5 years is possible and 10 years is highly likely”

“@SpaceX https://t.co/sO2s0OcM4L https://www.whereisroadster.com/charts/”

“@Truthful_ast Seems like I should explain what the gameplan is for getting to Mars in more detail. Any individual launch is not very important. What matters is the expected date when Mars becomes a self-sustaining civilization.”

“@SpaceXMR 🤣”

“@cleantechnica 2.1 sec 0-60 mph is base model before adding rocket thruster option”

“@WholeMarsBlog The 3 years of random drug testing was just because of one semi-puff during a @JoeRogan podcast!”

“@SpaceXMR Soon it will be real”

“@visegrad24 Space is hard. Took @SpaceX 4 tries to reach orbit. They can probably do it in fewer. But then it gets vastly harder to achieve truly useful reusability. Only SpaceX has ever done that.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Markoff is lying”

“@WholeMarsBlog This is the right release to go wide”

“@thesheetztweetz @QuiltyAnalytics First Starship orbital flight will be with Raptor 2 engines, as they are much more capable & reliable. 230 ton or ~500k lb thrust at sea level. We’ll have 39 flightworthy engines built by next month, then another month to integrate, so hopefully May for orbital flight test.”

“@AustinTeslaClub To be precise, completely & immediately reusable orbital rockets are the fundamental breakthrough needed to make life multiplanetary”

“@BLKMDL3 @S3XYstarship @IWill_Travel @AOC Yes, but this is actually a good thing. It has been raining money on fools for too long. Some bankruptcies need to happen. Also, all the Covid stay-at-home stuff has tricked people into thinking that you don’t actually need to work hard. Rude awakening inbound!”

“@WholeMarsBlog Nope”

“@WholeMarsBlog 🤣🤣”

“@archillect Dragon hover test”

“@Rainmaker1973 Smooth video courtesy of bolting Starlinks to the deck. They are able to handle high vibration & acoustics.”

“@WholeMarsBlog You don’t even need to touch the shifter in new S. Auto detect direction will come as an optional setting to all cars with FSD.”

“Upgraded SpaceX/Tesla Hyperloop pod speed test soon. Will try to reach half speed of sound (and brake) within ~1.2km.”

“@SciGuySpace So many war stories over 18 eventful years! But Starship can make life multiplanetary, which is what really matters for safeguarding the light of consciousness & life as we know it. 100X improvement over Falcon/Dragon.”

“@unusual_whales Not me. I will live and die in America. (Some possibility of dying on Mars, hopefully not on impact)”

“@WR4NYGov @garyblack00 @Tesla @WholeMarsBlog 🤣🤣 exactly”

“@vincent13031925 Final decision made earlier this week on booster engine count. Will be 33 at ~230 (half million lbs) sea-level thrust. All engines on booster are same, apart from deleting gimbal & thrust vector actuators for outer 20.”

“@FischerKing64 Keep books and historical media safe. SpaceX will put copies of knowledge in space an on the Moon and Mars.”
