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.
“@WhatsupFranks @TeslaGong Currency is already digital! Decentralized crypto is an attempt to wrest power of currency dilution (pernicious form of taxation) & capital controls from governments. That said, I sure hope the cure is better than the disease! Mars/AI are essential to passing the great filter/s.”
“@Erdayastronaut @Teslaconomics @SpaceX We could build a lot more, but the next version of Raptor is really the one to scale up production. We begin testing it in McGregor within a week or so. Regenerative cooling and secondary flow paths have been made integral to the whole engine, thus no heat shield is required.…”
“@thesheetztweetz Chris was an early employee of SpaceX, and made a significant contribution, but was not a cofounder”
“@PPathole @SpaceX @4thFromOurStar Sure hope so!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Yup, massive.”
“@WholeMarsBlog 10.69.2 has a relatively small number of code changes, but their practical effect will be significant”
“@FutureJurvetson @SpaceX Definitely one of the strangest meetings I’ve ever experienced. @adeoressi was there too.”
“@SciGuySpace SpaceX rockets are 80% reusable, theirs are 0%. This is the actual problem.”
“@GailAlfarATX @SpaceX @cnunezimages Great citizen journalism!”
“@SpacePadreIsle @SpaceX Haha”
“@NASASpaceflight Still aiming for booster 4 & Ship 20 for first orbital test flight (this is pure coincidence!)”
“@Tesmanian_com The magnitude of the Starship program is not widely appreciated. It is designed to extend life to Mars (and the moon), which requires ~1000 times more payload to orbit than all current Earth rockets combined.”
“@RenataKonkoly @SpaceX Machete!!”
“@engineers_feed Hell of a rocket! Probably would have succeeded if Korolev had not died. Hopefully, Starship is more fortunate.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Most people have no idea, even though there are so many FSD progress videos posted. Munro understood right away. There will be a gap before the next release, but then it will be a step change better. Tesla is solving a major real-world AI problem.”
“@SpaceX Launch underway”
“@WholeMarsBlog @rocker_261 @SawyerMerritt Training compute for Tesla is relatively small compared to inference compute, as the latter scales linearly with size of fleet. Perhaps the best way to think about it is in terms of power consumption. When the Tesla fleet reaches 100M vehicles, peak power consumption of AI…”
“@WholeMarsBlog Those are the biggest factors. ~80% of Tesla’s value will be Optimus.”
“@SirineAti @mn_google We will have a second Starship stack ready to fly in August and then monthly thereafter”
“@austinbarnard45 Total coincidence! Also, booster height was originally 70m, but we eliminated a half barrel for manufacturing efficiency, so now it’s …”
“@WholeMarsBlog It was a mistake to try to use the Elise. In the end, only ~5% of the Elise parts ended up being used. Tesla Roadster is a totally different car.”
“@Erdayastronaut @flcnhvy @ErcXspace Production is hard, prototypes are easy. Building ~1000 Starships to create a self-sustaining city on Mars is our mission.”
“@austinbarnard45 Starship SN6 flew asimilar hop to SN5, but it was a much smoother & faster operation”
“@WholeMarsBlog @ConsumerReports Tesla is half a decade ahead or more”
“@WholeMarsBlog Suppliers. We’re only doing high energy nickel ourselves, at least for now. Also, maybe the presentation wasn’t clear that we’ve actually had our cells in packs driving cars for several months. Prototypes are trivial, volume production is hard.”
“@cnunezimages @SpaceX Well ya see we need to reach around the rocket to uhh …”
“@WholeMarsBlog In that case, you’ll love 11.4.1”
“@nextspaceflight @NASASpaceflight @BocaChicaGal @SpaceX 29 Raptors on Booster initially, rising to 32 later this year, along with thrust increase per engine. Aiming for >7500 ton thrust long-term. T/W ~1.5.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Not sure who wrote this, but it’s accurate https://t.co/gRvWxOJZ56”
“Petra and Mars https://t.co/AFgsZVlImZ https://www.instagram.com/p/BglRR6EgB8j/”
“@WholeMarsBlog @Reuters This is a hard thing for us to do right now, as we don’t have enough satellites with laser links and there are already geo sats that serve the Tonga region. That is why I’m asking for clear confirmation.”
“@WholeMarsBlog https://t.co/MbS8QAyQH7”
“RT @SpaceX: The first Starship V3 has left the build site to begin prelaunch testing https://t.co/DMZVMuRQVl”
“@RocketLab Congrats!”
“@SpaceX @Starlink Back in the saddle!”
“@Brian_J_Berger That dude is not just a “condition of anonymity” spineless coward, he’s also an ignorant fool. Starlink was directly requested by the Ukraine government, as it was the only thing that worked.”
“@tobyliiiiiiiiii This is intended for Earth, but there may be some ideas that apply to Mars too”
“@yousuck2020 Thanks for helping fund a rocket & spaceship that could take humanity beyond Earth!”
“RT @Space_Station: The @SpaceX Dragon spacecraft carrying four #Crew9 members undocked from the station at 1:05am ET today and is headed fo…”
“@WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt @Tesla He doesn’t get enough negative feedback. This platform is great for that :).”
“@RyanZohoury @WholeMarsBlog @semaforben Good point. Conflicts of interest should be made readily apparent to the reader.”
“@ray4tesla Did my best to warn people that LiDAR isn’t optimal for cars. Roads are designed for biological neural nets & eyes, so digital neural nets & cameras will work best. I say this even though Dragon uses LiDAR for docking with Station, so I don’t intrinsically hate that technology.”
“@jamesdouma @CernBasher @matt_vanswol It’s a useful exercise for Mars too, where vast solar arrays will be needed plus fission”
“Falcon Heavy test flight currently scheduled for late summer”
“@_opencv_ It’s all part of broader vision/strategy 😂 Starship 10 is launching on Sunday. Grok 5 begins training next month. Tesla Autopilot V14 also next month. Long-term strategy is compelling.”
“@WholeMarsBlog I don’t comment on everything, as sometimes I don’t see it and commenting on everything makes it easy to fish for information. The take rate is much higher than 2%. Please.”
“@Tesmanian_com Award accepted on behalf of the great people at Tesla, SpaceX, Neuralink & Boring Co”
“@cnunezimages @SpaceX @SpaceIntellige3 Human for scale”
“@WholeMarsBlog xAI is burning the 4am oil LFG!!!”
