“@PPathole @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @Caspar_Stanley @IzanRamos2002 Some small tubes & wiring need to be nested in a bigger tube for thermal protection, kinda like conduit in a house. Engines themselves & booster base are extremely robust. High strength stainless steel is bulletproof to a handgun at ~2.5mm thickness. Booster dome is 4mm.”
“@HSajwanization I hope others succeed too, but at least there is one rocket where success in making life multiplanetary is one of the possible outcomes”
“RT @SpaceX: Side boosters separate from Falcon Heavy https://t.co/iz6g7AONN3”

“@LanceUlanoff Note, gas contained would be ultra high pressure air in a SpaceX rocket COPV bottle. The air exiting the thrusters would immediately be replenished whenever vehicle pack power draw allowed operation of the air pump, which is most of the time.”
“RT @farzyness: Starlink is only possible because of reusable rockets. SpaceX is the only company that does reusable rockets. And they're…”

“@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.”
“@Tenjin37151 @Space_Station @SpaceX @Commercial_Crew @NASA @esa @JAXA_en @astro_kimbrough @Astro_Megan @Thom_astro @Aki_Hoshide As described in The Moon is a Harsh Mistress (great book), a linear accelerator would be great for the moon. Earth’s gravity is too high & atmosphere too dense for accelerators to be a good solution vs reusable boosters imo.”
“RT @xdNiBoR: > Tesla will never succeed > Elon can't start a space company > Neuralink will never work > SpaceX will never reuse a rocket…”
“@Erdayastronaut @SciGuySpace Last launch aborted due to slightly high power. Possibly, but not obviously, related to today. This vehicle has seen a lot of wear, so today isn’t a big surprise. Life leader rockets are used only for internal missions. Won’t risk non-SpaceX satellites.”
“@ashleevance @blueorigin @SpaceX @RocketLab @Firefly_Space @stoke_space Good hope for the future of humanity in space!”
“@FutureJurvetson Boeing and Lockheed moved their rocket production from California to Alabama. SpaceX took over an abandoned aerospace building in LA County and turned it into the highest volume rocket producer in the world. That was because I lived in California.”
“@Erdayastronaut @PPathole @SpaceX We’re pretty close to the manufacturing size limit for a milled copper & steel jacket nozzle. Lot of complexity to add a nozzle extension to a sea level engine for small gain. Also hard to fit bigger engine nozzles on the booster.”
“RT @ElonClipsX: Elon Musk: When we started SpaceX, we knew nothing about rockets. “In the beginning, we knew nothing about rockets, and ou…”
“@FutureJurvetson @BryceSpaceTech @SpaceX SpaceX aims to make life multiplanetary, which means that the technology must be orders of magnitude better than companies that just want to put some satellites in orbit”

“@ajtourville @SpaceX The only reason any medium to heavy class rocket organizations still exist is due to government protection”
“@SptlightVids @SpaceX Yes, but we couldn’t take a chance on 2nd stage failing it’s 4th maneuver. This mission was more complex than anything I’m aware of in history of rockets. RIP center core, you did your duty well.”
“@elon_docs There were no cases of successful privately-funded rocket companies at the start of SpaceX and the last truly successful car company startup was Chrysler, about a century ago”

“@lrocket Making life multiplanetary requires a vastly higher standard. The “competition” is making the equivalent of expendable rowboats, instead of ocean-crossing ships, because their sights are set far too low.”
“@ajtourville @SpaceX We need the revenue to make life multiplanetary”
“@canraptor_ @SpaceX @blueorigin @RocketLab There are good engineers at Boeing and Lockheed, but we have to get rid of the cost-plus contracting system that incentivizes maximizing costs!”
“@jordanxmajel @WatchersTank @SpaceX Shock absorption is built into tower arms. Since tower is ground side, it can use a lot more mass to arrest booster downward momentum.”
“RT @SciGuySpace: Incredibly, SpaceX just landed its 400th rocket on a drone ship. This has all happened in less than a decade since the fir…”
“@MarioNawfal Let’s not get carried away! SpaceX will probably do ~99% of Earth payload to orbit in 2026, despite the rest of industry growing. Assuming rocket launches by competitors grow at their current rate, SpaceX will probably do 99.9% of payload to orbit in 10 years, but I hope I’m…”
“RT @MarcusHouse: How crazy is it that this is almost "normal". When SpaceX first mentioned they would try to catch vehicles out of the sky…”
“@DJSnM Cool, but it’s better to use a rocket booster. Planes just can’t compete when it comes to orbital Spaceflight.”
“@DJSnM @RocketTenor @NASA @SpaceX @Space_Station @Commercial_Crew For cargo missions, propulsive land landing should be no problem. Doesn’t have same safety criticality as crew.”
