15 years of Elon, fully searchable. The production archive uses Supabase as the source of truth, with 94,952 indexed tweets available in development as a full-archive fallback and a curated annotation layer for context, theory, and how major claims aged.
“@DimaZeniuk @Starlink Cool”
“Starlink now available in Albania!”
“@DiligentDenizen Starlink will provide free Internet for schools in Brazil if the government won’t honor their contract”
“@WholeMarsBlog FSD will save millions of lives”
“More Starlink DTC satellites rolling out”
“@Rainmaker1973 Except for Starlink, which communicates via space lasers. Light travels ~40% faster in vacuum than fiber optics and on a more direct path, rather than following the outline of continents, so Starlink will be much faster over time than ocean cables. This is important.”
“@shaunmmaguire Starlink should be able to provide that”
“@Lolomatico3d @SpaceX @CSI_Starbase @FelixSchlang @MarcusHouse @starbase_fr @2legit2quit3d @Matt_Lowne @DeffGeff @Grandpajoe42 @VickiCocks15 @Benedikt_3D Hopefully, higher thrust. Long term goal is 330 tF.”
“@HSajwanization @Starlink @SpaceX Glad to see Starlink helping people”
“@EdKrassen Civilization needs to retain its current technology level until Mars is self-sufficient, which could be achieved within ~20 years. If we become multiplanetary and then multistellar our civilization will last millions of years. If not, maybe just a few hundred years.”
“@_BRCooper @WholeMarsBlog Interesting analysis”
“@troyrjones @WholeMarsBlog Yup”
“@SawyerMerritt 8/8 and year of the Dragon”
“@WholeMarsBlog 💯 Reuters is the lair champion among legacy press orgs”
“@WholeMarsBlog It’s insanely hard”
“@Bob366466 @tvguidemsk @WholeMarsBlog 🎯”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tesla would be happy to do such deals”
“@WholeMarsBlog Production rate and fully considered cost are the challenges. Demand for stationary batteries is super high. I think Tesla might end up doing more total Joules in stationary than mobile long-term.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Good chance that turns out to be true”
“@WholeMarsBlog And we will license the tech to other car companies”
“@WholeMarsBlog Yeah, should be obvious”
“@WholeMarsBlog He’s such an idiot that he can’t even tell he’s an idiot. BYD sales dropped by 42% from last quarter. This was a tough quarter for everyone.”
“Starlink helps fund humanity getting to Mars”
“At 5000 tons, Starship is the largest flying object ever made. Thrust is more than double the Saturn V moon rocket. It is the first spaceship design capable of making life multiplanetary. Goal of the next mission is to make it through the meteorically extreme heat of reentry.”
“SpaceX aiming for 3 launches today! One Eutelsat, which just reached orbit, and 2 @Starlink missions. https://t.co/31chkn2gIh”
“@WholeMarsBlog Hardware 4 will ultimately be better, but all training is for Hardware 3, with HW4 running in emulation mode”
“@WholeMarsBlog Lot of work between here and there, but it can be done”
“@WholeMarsBlog Long-term, solar & wind with batteries wins, but mostly solar, as it crushes everything at 1GW/km^2. The Sahara alone could power Earth several times over. A corner of Utah or Texas could power all of North America, including Canada and Mexico.”
“Starlink now in Argentina!”
“Getting ready for Flight 4 of Starship! Goal of this mission is for Starship to get through max reentry heating with all systems functioning.”
“@ID_AA_Carmack The right way to grade any technology is not comparing it to competitors (too easy), but comparing it to the limit of physics. That is, for example, how we grade Starlink latency, which shows that there is still a *lot* of room for improvement! Same for $/ton to Mars.”
“@COLDEX_STC @SpaceX @NSF @blueicehiggins @icy_pete @US_IceDrilling @OSUCEOAS @Princeton @GeosciencesPU @OregonState @UMNews Cool 🥶”
“@WholeMarsBlog All US cars that are capable of FSD will be enabled for a one month trial this week”
“@WholeMarsBlog I assume you’re kidding. We do need to trim down the time for camera calibration.”
“Starbase, Texas, rocket factory https://t.co/bfUImi9ZCY”
“Some Falcon landing shots https://t.co/yv4FJjHVNq”
“@WholeMarsBlog About 15 Cybertrucks in service had an issue where the door striker loosened in the field, due to insufficient torque after door fit. This is takes 5 mins to fix in service and has been addressed in production.”
“@SpaceX Even though it’s meant to be used for emergencies, it looks like a lot of fun!”
“Dragon is now operational on 2 launchpads!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Pretty impressive”
“@WholeMarsBlog Three significant improvements to FSD will roll out roughly every two weeks. Should be really shining bright by late April or early May.”
“@DimaZeniuk @Starlink Yup”
“@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.”
“@pmarca Cybertruck and Starlink are something special, but maybe they don’t count as Big Tech”
“@shivon Starship Simulator!”
“@WholeMarsBlog Cool”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX There thousands of changes from flight 2 to 3, but this is a good summary of major ones”
“@niccruzpatane @Tesla @WholeMarsBlog @SawyerMerritt Glad it worked out”
“@Cmdr_Hadfield @SpaceX @CNN @AstroDude @BeckyCNN Exactly!”
