“@SciGuySpace I think we can do it. Progress is accelerating. Starship offers a path to far greater payload to the Moon than is currently anticipated in the Artemis program. A permanently crewed Moon base is possible.”
“@jasonsellspa Starship will land on a ring of fire”
“@PPathole That’s when all life on Earth will be boiled off. What matters is how long civilization is capable of making the jump to Mars. This could be a very short period of time measured in decades. It took 4.5 billion years to get to this point & civilization isn’t looking super stable.”
“@Zshauladventure @NASAKennedy @ulalaunch @SpaceX @NatReconOfc Good to see. Inspiring for future of space!”
“@TeslaGong @PPathole @SpaceX There is a profound difference between single-planet & multiplanet species. If we are able to visit other stars one day, we may discover many long-dead single-planet civilizations.”
“@AstroJordy @PPathole @SpaceX @Tesla That version of Falcon 1 never flew, so must be ~2004. The CAD looks so simple! I think we were still using SolidWorks back then.”
“@astro_g_dogg Took more work to make F9 booster reuse cost-effective than went into recovering it in the first place. This is an important point. Things finally clicked into place with Block 5. My hat is off to everyone at SpaceX, NASA, Space Force, FAA & suppliers who helped make it happen.”
“@PPathole Booster has 2 pins for lifting & catching, although maybe it’s better to modify grid fins to take more load. Something will need to flip out from leeward side of top of ship to do same there. Maybe it’s part of fwd flaps, but prob not. Diff solutions for diff load paths.”
“RT @Gwynne_Shotwell: Get on board! We are going to Mars! SpaceX is now offering Starship services to the red planet. We’re excited to work…”

“RT @SpaceX: Falcon 9 lifts off from pad 4E in California, delivering 22 @Starlink satellites to the constellation https://t.co/Y4xyrVxp5Y”
“@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”
“@ace_constantine @NASAEarthMars I love the inverse poetry of making metaphors literal”
“@PeterDiamandis With the advent of Starship, there is finally a path to solar-powered AI satellites at massive scale. It is the only path I can see that would allow for deployment of 1TW/year of AI.”
“@stevenmarkryan @WholeMarsBlog Heard Diablo IV might be good. Remake of System Shock out soon.”

“@agoyal00 @WholeMarsBlog @PPathole @Gfilche @MadeInTheUSANJ Yes. It’s safe to say that Mackenzie [ahem] Scott is not exactly a big fan of her ex-husband. Unfortunately, a lot of others are getting caught in the crossfire.”
“1st firing of Falcon 9-R advanced prototype rocket. Over 1M lbs thrust, enough to lift skyscraper http://t.co/AUCsWTw77E”

“@YounieTyler @astro_g_dogg Booster is more than half cost of mission. Fairing is ~10%.”
“RT @SpaceX: Fairing deployment confirmed. Today’s mission marks our first 30th flight of a fairing half! https://t.co/hX98iKHZAr”
“@MarsMeditation @RationalEtienne @PPathole The S-curve appears to be entering the logarithmic phase”
“RT @SawyerMerritt: X is offering a trip to Mars on @SpaceX's Starship rocket if you get a perfect March Madness bracket, or, alternatively,…”
“@EvaFoxU @WholeMarsBlog Bringing a new product to volume production is 1% inspiration & 99% perspiration. You do still need that critical seed of inspiration, but it’s fun & takes ~100 people. Production takes >10,000 people & hurts like hell until the gigantic cybernetic collective runs smoothly.”

“@PPathole @Adamklotz_ @AaronS5_ @crheller @SpaceX Laser links in orbit can reduce long-distance latency by as much as 50%, due to higher speed of light in vacuum & shorter path than undersea fiber”
“RT @XBusiness: X is proud to be partnering with @au_official as an essential app for users in Japan. Starting today au Starlink Direct cu…”
“@PPathole @breezefps Best outcome would be to route packets from Starlink user terminal to ground station on roof of server center. Then it doesn’t even touch the regular Internet.”
“@spacesudoer It’s often some aspiring academic who couldn’t build a working rocket if you put a gun to their head lol”
“@PPathole @thesheetztweetz @waEMD @SpaceX @SpaceXStarlink @WANationalGuard Average latency will improve as more satellites launch (directly above you more frequently) & more ground stations are deployed. As we’re able to put more ground stations on roofs of server centers, legacy Internet latency will be zero.”
“@EverydayTesla Yeah, engineering is ~90% of my time at SpaceX & about ~60% at Tesla”
“@RationalEtienne @PPathole @thesheetztweetz @waEMD @SpaceX @SpaceXStarlink @WANationalGuard Yes, Starlink is designed to enable competitive gaming”
“@PPathole Lowering Starlink terminal cost, which may sound rather pedestrian, is actually our most difficult technical challenge”
“@FredericLambert @georgezachary I had to focus on solving a painfully large number of engineering & manufacturing problems at Tesla (especially) & SpaceX”
“@EvaFoxU The premature death of a rocket engineering genius was a great blow”
“@alvianchoiri Ahem, yes, it was the 3rd flight of this booster & 3rd flight for active half of fairing. Aiming for 10+ flights of booster & fairing by end of next year.”

“@TJ_Cooney @lrocket @SpaceX @FelixSchlang @MarcusHouseGame That sounds correct. Tom certainly deserves a lot of credit for his excellent work on those engines! Dean Ono too for Kestrel & Draco.”
“@PPathole @_rykllan @FelixSchlang @spaceXcentric @MarcusHouseGame @SpaceX That’s the number that really matters”
“@paulg @NoahCarl90 [continued] The depth of Musk's brand erosion among ordinary Britons was driven home to me during a recent conversation with our falconer (who, despite his modest profession, holds two advanced degrees in medieval history). He compared Musk to a "bloody tosser," which I'm told…”

“@PPathole @_rykllan @FelixSchlang @spaceXcentric @MarcusHouseGame @SpaceX Cumulative mass to orbit per year (corrected for GTO & other high energy orbits) is the best comparative metric imo”

“@Erdayastronaut @DiscoverMag Probably no fairing either & just 3 Raptor Vacuum engines. Mass ratio of ~30 (1200 tons full, 40 tons empty) with Isp of 380. Then drop a few dozen modified Starlink satellites from empty engine bays with ~1600 Isp, MR 2. Spread out, see what’s there. Not impossible.”

“@Malcolmmarsman Seems likely that we’ll be able to reuse fairings that soft-landed in the ocean. May not need net at all. Would still love to see the catch happen though ⚾️ 👍”
