“@imPenny2x @SecDuffyNASA They won’t. SpaceX is moving like lightning compared to the rest of the space industry. Moreover, Starship will end up doing the whole Moon mission. Mark my words.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Then HW5, which has been renamed to AI5, in the second half of next year. The Tesla AI5 computer has ~10X the capability of HW4 computer and Tesla makes the whole software stack.”
“@WatchersTank @SpaceX We’re almost done with first prototype booster. This will go to test stand A. Next one will fly to orbit. Team has been crushing it many days & nights in a row!”
“View of Dragon from @Space_Station cupola https://t.co/1HjljLWdFi”
“@Teslarati @13ericralph31 It’s a big deal that Dragon is reusable, with improved refurbishment efficiency with each passing flight! This is not the case for other orbital spacecraft. It means the spacefleet grows every time a new Dragon is made.”
“@teslaownersSV First, no one has ever mentioned rehab to me ever. Second, if they are saying that I was able to lead Tesla to be by far the most valuable carmaker and SpaceX to be by far the most valuable space company *simultaneously*, that is the greatest compliment I have ever received!”
“@NASA Starship has the potential to return serious tonnage from Mars within ~5 years”
“@wapodavenport However, even if it were 16 flights with docking, this is not a problem. SpaceX did more than 16 orbital flights in first half of 2021 & has docked with Station (much harder than docking with our own ship) over 20 times.”
“If u saw @TheSimpsons and wonder why @SpaceX doesn't use an electric rocket to reach orbit, it is cuz that is impossible”
“@WholeMarsBlog @jimfarley98 @mrlevine Just drove FSD Beta 9.3 from Pasadena to LAX. Much improved!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Fixed in 12.4”
“RT @VoteMarsha: It’s been 1,394 days since I asked Ketanji Brown Jackson a simple question: Can you define the word ‘woman’? Her answer wa…”
“@SawyerMerritt 8/8 and year of the Dragon”
“@thesheetztweetz Work needed between flights is less & less, as shown by shortening time between reflights. Required work between flights for Starship & Super Heavy is zero.”
“@WholeMarsBlog 12.5.x will finally combine the city and highway software stacks”
“@ICannot_Enough @engineers_feed Yeah, it’s insane! Roughly 70% of Earth is ocean and most of the ocean has zero ships per Starlink cell. Most people think Earth is crowded with humans, but in reality it’s almost empty by surface area. Humans congregate in a very small percentage of Earth (cities). The entire…”
“@FedorovMykhailo @Brian_J_Berger @SpaceX @SpaceXStarlink @Honda @ChampionGen @westinghouse @DuroMaxPower @W__Home Solar area will need to be higher with obscuration, but works better than one might think”
“@WholeMarsBlog I am not endorsing drugs, but I am saying that the evidence suggests that banning them is a net societal negative”
“@chazman @Tesla @Starlink @cybertruck Yes, Cybertruck FSD releases with 12.5, which also finally merges the city and highway code.”
“@BillyM2k The only thing keeping the other orbital rocket programs alive is government protection or they’d be deader than a doornail and everyone knows it. But oh well … comme ci, comme ça.”
“@Astro_Elliott @Teslarati @ResidentSponge Aiming to have hot gas thrusters on booster for first orbital flight”
“@rustyrockets @bariweiss @shellenberger @mtaibbi 💯”
“@thesheetztweetz 4 significant items: - Final heat shield tiles for ship - Thermal protection of booster engines - Ground propellant storage tanks - QD arm for ship 2 weeks.”
“@MarioNawfal Amazingly, no Starliner fines for Boeing! The FAA space division is harassing SpaceX about nonsense that doesn’t affect safety while giving a free pass to Boeing even after NASA concluded that their spacecraft was not safe enough to bring back the astronauts. There need to be…”
“@WholeMarsBlog And many other things”
“@FutureJurvetson @SpaceX This seems increasingly likely”
“@LabPadre @SpaceX You’re welcome”
“@ErcXspace @austinbarnard45 @SpaceX @NASASpaceflight Might take a few kicks at the can before we catch the rocket haha”
“@WholeMarsBlog 🤣 what could go wrong?”
“@WholeMarsBlog True”
“@NASASpaceflight Hopefully first try with booster 5”
“@Jason Thanks Jason! Super proud to work with such great teams at SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink and Boring!!”
“@NASASpaceflight 39A is hallowed spaceflight ground – no place more deserving of a Starship launch pad! Will have similar, but improved, ground systems & tower to Starbase.”
“@MarshaBlackburn ❤️”
“@DJSnM Orbital precession takes a long time. With Starship & Starlink V2.0, hopefully we can direct inject to target orbit.”
“@WholeMarsBlog 😂”
“@FedorovMykhailo @Starlink You’re welcome”
“RT @SpaceX: View under the launch mount as Super Heavy's 33 Raptor engines ignite on Starship's eighth flight test https://t.co/WRCazkhyXs”
“@Adamklotz_ @SpaceX Next major technology rev is at SN20. Those ships will be orbit-capable with heat shield & stage separation system. Ascent success probability is high. However, SN20+ vehicles will probably need many flight attempts to survive Mach 25 entry heating & land intact.”
“@Shastada0 Absolutely. Normal connectivity is often lost when there are wild fires, storms or flooding, but Starlink still works.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Me & this platform, for example”
“@SmokeAwayyy @SpaceX Exactly”
“@WholeMarsBlog The build I’m driving right now is almost there. FSD 10 will blow your mind.”
“@WatchersTank @LabPadre Congrats SpaceX tower team & supporting contractors!”
“@NASASpaceflight It will look crazy tall with booster & fairing at 122m / 394 ft”
“@MatthewDR @WholeMarsBlog With 12.5”
“@sana_J2 @SpaceX And to be clear, I have never asked @realDonaldTrump for any favors, nor has he offered me any”
“@MarioNawfal This Starship is designed to traverse our entire solar system and beyond to the cloud of objects surrounding us. A future Starship, much larger and more advanced, will travel to other star systems.”
“Counting down to the first SpaceX launch from the Apollo 11 launch pad tomorrow morning (webcast… https://t.co/upjTcmftte https://www.instagram.com/p/BQpXxl5BIYX/”
“@MarcusHouse It will have high pressure air rocket thrusters behind a license plate that flips down. Bong, James Bong …”
