“@WholeMarsBlog Wipers will get super good”
“@wholemars AI chips are needed for everything”
“@DavidNagySFgang Booster engines are not shrouded by skirt extension, as with ship. Engines extend about 3m below booster.”
“Aiming to launch this weekend and (hopefully) land on our droneship. Ship landings needed for high velocity missions https://t.co/n6j0mExAqM https://x.com/spacex/status/686740078387843073”

“@mayemusk @SpaceX Starship Mk 1 & Hopper”
“@wholemars Yeah, it’s like getting an iPhone after only using flip phones”
“@SpaceX @SpaceForceDoD Winning 60% of the missions may sound generous, but the reality is that all SpaceX competitors combined cannot currently deliver the other 40%! I hope they succeed, but they aren’t there yet.”
“@DiscoverMag That's a SpaceX engineer in there, not me”
“@jiveDurkey @SpaceX @facebook Literally never seen it even once”
“@S3XYstarship @ACTBrigitte He’s fine, I guess. Does seem like he’s spending a lot of time in the hot tub these days. If he wants to get to orbit, less partying and more work would be advisable.”
“@Rainmaker1973 Used a lot in rocketry”
“Rocket landing speed was close to design max & used up contingency crush core, hence back & forth motion. Prob ok, but some risk of tipping.”
“@Rjdlandscapes @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX That’s our goal”
“@ICannot_Enough @SteveHamel16 @SpaceX Iron(y)man”
“@aakashgupta Starship V4 Tanker version will deliver >200 tons of propellant per flight, so more like 5 or 6 tanker flights to refill the lunar transit Starship in orbit. Shouldn’t be too much of a problem if we’re doing >10k flights/year.”
“RT @latestinspace: “A rocket will never be able to leave the Earth’s atmosphere.” - New York Times, 1936 https://t.co/85HT04BS4N”
“@BrennanChant @SpaceX Yeah. Active fairing half recovered though.”
“@ID_AA_Carmack Best case 2028, but probably 2030. If SpaceX is not smothered by regulations, then the Starship launch rate will far exceed the Falcon launch rate, as Starship fully reusable, while Falcon is only mostly reusable. Starship should be doing >1000 Earth orbit flights per year by…”

“@WholeMarsBlog So many”
“@breezefps Starlink inter-satellite laser links should be operational by end of year. This will dramatically reduce global latency. Light travels ~40% faster in vacuum/air than in fiber optic cables & satellite path length is shorter (cables follow coastlines).”

“@ErcXspace @SpaceX @FelixSchlang @MarcusHouseGame @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight Great render! The circumferential welds & skin panels will be much smoother in future builds.”
“@WholeMarsBlog There’ll be lots of green space around factory, but building itself is continuous. The “open” areas inside are covered. They’re internal semi truck roads inside a giant monolithic building.”
“@WholeMarsBlog This is idiotic”
“@WholeMarsBlog Exactly”

“@WholeMarsBlog @jonbbc @aelluswamy 10.69.2 goes out to 100k owners next week”
“@WholeMarsBlog This is crazy, given that Starlink is available right now for a tiny fraction of this cost”

“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX No, Raptor uses a large number of coaxial swirl injectors, which (we believe) achieves highest theoretical mixing/combustion efficiency.”
“@ErcXspace @SpaceX @NASASpaceflight @Erdayastronaut @MarcusHouseGame @FelixSchlang Not bad”
