“@Astro_Elliott @LifeboatHQ Once you have rapidly reusable rockets of sufficient size to carry >100 tons of payload, it is not clear that cost per ton to orbit/moon/Mars improves with a larger rocket. Aircraft, for example, have moved away from 747/A380 to 777, which has ~100 tons of payload.”

“@RupertLowe10 The dragon is cool”
“@SciGuySpace Mailing Dragon dock with Space Station is much harder than docking with our own ship for refilling. Not a problem.”
“@SciGuySpace They need to go all-in on reusability or be utterly uncompetitive. Rockets are no different from other transport technologies, just harder to make reusable. No one would buy a single-use airplane, car or even bicycle! You’d need to tow another car just for the return trip 🤣”

“@JaneidyEve @justpaulinelol @EvaFoxU @SpaceX Very convincing! Ok, Boca it is. We should have Starship Mk1 with 3 Raptors almost ready to fly by then.”
“@nextspaceflight @Erdayastronaut Static fire & short flights with SN3, longer flights with SN4, but spooling up the whole Starship/Raptor production line is really what matters”
“@Erdayastronaut @dauqhx @universal_sci Starship propellant is ~78% oxygen, so an O2 plant on the moon would be enough. Otherwise, we could brute-force it with tankers to low Earth orbit. That’s probably faster.”

“@WholeMarsBlog And it will only get better”
“@JoelSercel Despite significant growth by our competitors, especially China, SpaceX will probably increase from ~90% of Earth’s total payload to orbit to ~98% in about 24 months due to Starship”
“Falcon Heavy side boosters can use most of the same airframe as Falcon 9, but center core needs to be buffed up a lot for transfer loads.”
“RT @johnkrausphotos: Good evening from Starbase, Texas, where Starlink satellite simulators are being loaded onto Ship 34 ahead of Starship…”
“@PalmerLuckey Exactly. Crimea was a sanctioned region, which is why our beams were not activated there. SpaceX cannot violate sanctions at the request of a foreign government – that would be a felony criminal action. We did not receive a request from the US government.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Solving overspending will solve inflation”

“@skorusARK Marginal cost of Starship mass to orbit should be well under $100/kg. Fully burdened cost depends on flight rate.”

“@Erdayastronaut @i_gvf @SciGuySpace Exactly. Chartering a dedicated 747 flight around the world costs less than buying a small, single engine turboprop plane. In the same way, a giant reusable rocket flight is way cheaper than a tiny expendable rocket that can be used only once.”
“@TrungTPhan I came to the (obvious) conclusion that a radical improvement in rocket technology was needed to make life multiplanetary. That required creating a company, as success was not in the set of possible outcomes for the existing rocket companies.”
“@AnthonyFinno @RobertOHaver @Tesla Tesla is affecting powerful vested interests. Big auto & oil companies aren’t known for their gentle behavior. SpaceX is battling US military prime contractors & space programs of national govts. No walk in the park there.”
