“@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”

“@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.”

“@WholeMarsBlog This assumes completion of the 10b sales”

“@baierm588 Build 1000+ Starships to transport life to Mars. Basically, (very) modern Noah’s Arks.”

“@SpaceX Krypton thrusters operative, satellites initiating orbit raise every 90 mins”

“@ggreenwald Despite greatly helping Ukraine via Starlink, I was viciously attacked for stating the obvious a year ago. The reason I did so was in hopes of avoiding the sacrifice of a generation of men to the trenches for nothing.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Given all that is in V11, it will take a few weeks to expand the beta, then another few weeks to go wide release to US & Canada”

“@ErcXspace We’re going to try to catch the Super Heavy Booster with the launch tower arm, using the grid fins to take the load”

“Falcon/Dragon launch to @Space_Station in 9 minutes”

“@engineers_feed Indirectly, an electric rocket is possible by using electricity to convert CO2+H2O —> CH4+O2. This will be needed on Mars even for early missions & Earth too over time.”

“@AJamesMcCarthy @WholeMarsBlog Correct. Truly shameful of the media to dredge up an injury from two years ago due to a simple industrial Kuka robot arm (found in all factories) and imply that it is due to Optimus now.”

“@MarioNawfal @VlogdoLisboa @BGatesIsaPyscho Glad Starlink could be helpful to the people of Brazil”

“@WholeMarsBlog They are great”

“Hyperloop Alpha at http://t.co/ZRTcT2b8bP and http://t.co/7cucKKprPB http://t.co/LYhuRxUntA http://spacex.com/hyperloop”

“@WholeMarsBlog They are actually much more than point releases, but the team is reserving 11.420 for the big one”

“On Mars, I like to drink my coffee in this mug https://t.co/DN7aIyhhQ3 https://shop.spacex.com/occupy-mars-heat-sensitive-terraforming-mug.html”
