“@WholeMarsBlog V11 is 💥”

“@WholeMarsBlog Much better”

“@DannyLaShep With steel membrane wings like a Dragon, we may be able to lower Starship’s orbital reentry temp to ~1000 degrees C, which would allow the whole surface to be uncooled bare metal”

“@AlexFinnX It is such an honor to work with the incredible SpaceX team”

“@WholeMarsBlog @tkrisher He’s actually a lobbyist, not a journalist. There are many who pose as the latter while behaving like the former. No integrity. Indeed, there were no safety issues. The car simply slowed to ~2 mph & continued forward if clear view with no cars or pedestrians.”

“@Gfilche @MadeInTheUSANJ I’m just talking about the mid-term elections in November. Not sure that there is a third party candidate. It’s rather hard to support a party when prominent members of that party keep attacking me and sidelining Tesla & SpaceX!”

“@nextspaceflight Payload reduction due to reusability of booster & fairing is <40% for F9 & recovery & refurb is <10%, so you’re roughly even with 2 flights, definitely ahead with 3”

“@kevinrose @Starlink And it will improve significantly when Starship starts launching the third generation satellites at 350km altitude (5 ms speed of light round trip latency) with larger antennas that allow for multi-gigabit bandwidth”

“@teslaownersSV Starship V4 will have 42 engines when 3 more Raptors are added to a significantly longer ship. That will fly in 2027. Starship V3 is a massive upgrade from the current V2 and should be through production and testing by end of year, with heavy flight activity next year.”

“@mualphaxi @SpaceX She is super racist and proud of it”

“@newscientist This is actually a good thing btw. China is making amazing progress in space, rapidly iterating on rocket & space station technology. Great respect.”

“@Cmdr_Hadfield @SpaceX Thanks Chris! A fully and immediately reusable orbital heat shield, which (as you know) has never been made before, is the single toughest problem remaining. Being able to iterate with many ideas on many ships is key to solving this.”

“@WholeMarsBlog The long-term outcome for Tesla is very high”

“@wholemars Demis is calling artificial super intelligence AGI, because if AI can figure out relativity and can be copied to have millions of them, it will be vastly superhuman as a collective”

“@DJSnM @SpaceX I’m told that no ocelot has been seen in the Boca Chica area for ~40 years. We have many motion-activated cameras around Starbase – thousands of clips of coyotes, dogs & cats, but no ocelots.”

“@WhatsupFranks … while simultaneously leading Tesla to be the world’s most valuable car company (Model Y is the selling vehicle on Earth) and SpaceX to be the world’s most valuable space company (~80% of all payload to orbit last year). Whatever I’m doing, I should obviously keep doing it!”

“Good article on the interplanetary transport system on Gizmodo https://t.co/nysjRDQWFz https://news.google.com/news/ampviewer?caurl=http%3A%2F%2Fgizmodo.com%2Fthis-is-how-elon-musk-plans-to-build-a-city-on-mars-up-1787146547%2Famp#pt0-433220”

“@Bob_Richards One rocket, slightly toasted”

“@AdamLowisz Note, Starlink terminals can be used for defense infrastructure communications, schools, hospitals, personal, etc, but terms of service do not allow for offensive military use, as it is a civilian commercial system”

“@WholeMarsBlog How quickly some forget”

“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla Autopilot was literally named after the term used in aviation. Also, what about Autobahn!?”

“@YunTaTsai1 Yes. In about 6 or 7 years, there will be days where Starship launches more than 24 times in 24 hours.”

“@ID_AA_Carmack I hope so. Wings don’t work on the moon at all and def not well on Mars. Also, no runways.”

“@grzf_ Starship is kinda Gundam”

“@flcnhvy Pitch control requires more force than yaw & much more force than roll. Also, grid fins closer to or in the wake of the booster are less effective. However, pretty good aero control can technically be achieved with only 2 grid fins, with some effect on accuracy.”

“RT @SpaceX: Super Heavy has splashed down in the Gulf of America, gathering data for the next generation booster https://t.co/o72ciKBZYm”

“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla has great respect for software engineering, they do not”

“@SP_LimitReviews @Tesla @CodingMark @Manic_Marge @teslainventory @WholeMarsBlog Lot of good work happening on Tesla sound codec & audio software in general. Aiming for maximum music dopamine in your brain!”

“@StarshipFairing @Phrankensteyn @SpaceX @smvllstvrs @Erdayastronaut @austinbarnard45 @NASASpaceflight @spacex360 @ErcXspace If Earth’s gravity was even 10% lower, I’d be all for single stage to orbit”

“@WholeMarsBlog Almost ready with FSD Beta V9.0. Step change improvement is massive, especially for weird corner cases & bad weather. Pure vision, no radar.”

“@cb_doge @pfigueiredobr2 Starlink will continue to support the Brazilian military even though our bank accounts in Brazil have been illegally frozen by Judge De Voldemort”

“Max recovered booster velocity was Mach 7.9 (BulgarianSat). Energy is velocity squared, so this is a bigger difference than it appears”

“@marmars Please add your suggestions for features & fixes in this reply thread. We want video on this platform to be the best in the world.”

“@cb_doge More than twice the power of the Saturn V Moon rocket. Next version will be 3X.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Insta ToS summarized: https://t.co/sVhNlJ9r9j https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=81QMiGhIymU”

“RT @SpaceX: Liftoff of the first flight-proven Super Heavy booster and thrice flown Raptor engine https://t.co/dwXkhVyRG6”

“@WholeMarsBlog Yeah, there were thousands of articles like this”

“@WholeMarsBlog Haha”

“@TevTevTevin @WholeMarsBlog Sorry, I was laughing too hard to read the screen properly 🤣🤣”

“@WholeMarsBlog Indeed”

“@EvaFoxU @BillyM2k I’m a dirty rocket”

“@rustyrockets @JDVance 💯”

“@WholeMarsBlog One more production release of pure vision this week, then FSD beta 9 a week or two later. V9.0 FSD is also pure vision. Foundational improvements are immense.”

“@Erdayastronaut Great shot! Btw, Starship Super Heavy will not have an entry burn. Delta-v is shifted more to the ship, so booster entry Q & heating is lower.”

“@NASASpaceflight SpaceX is doing simultaneous competing builds of Starship in Boca Chica Texas & Cape Canaveral Florida”

“@WholeMarsBlog It is increasingly clear that all roads lead to AGI. Tesla is building an extremely compute-efficient mini AGI for FSD.”

“@WholeMarsBlog @ValueAnalyst1 That would be awesome. I suspect they will say no, but I will ask Warren & Charlie.”

“@NASASpaceflight Starship/Super Heavy, which is ~10X mass of Zenit, will mostly launch from ocean spaceports long-term”

“RT @libsoftiktok: We’re going to plant a flag on Mars!! 🚀 https://t.co/IaB37T8VQl”

“@ID_AA_Carmack SpaceX’s goal is to make life multiplanetary, whereas their goal is to put a handful of satellites in orbit”
