@WholeMarsBlog Tunneled under the road from one property to another. This is to test the new machine.

@rookisaacman @SpaceX It will truly be glorious when the ship is caught too and the whole stack immediately flies again! Full & immediate (no mandatory refurbishment) reusability with low cost propellant (almost 80% liquid oxygen, no helium pressurant) will mean a marginal cost per ton ~100 times…

@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX Great video. Couple notes: Raptor designed for subcooled CH4/O2, so propellant density & thrust increase up to ~8%, as needed for mission. 380 Isp & up to 50% thrust/weight improvement over time. Merlin thrust/weight doubled from V1, but Raptor is closer to optimum.

@SciGuySpace SpaceX will do orbital refilling several times next year with Starship V3. Because we are simply docking with ourself, this is a much easier problem than docking with the Space Station, which SpaceX already does several times a year.

@SpaceActivist88 @JeffGreason @peterrhague @SpaceNotJohn SpaceX will colonize Mars. The fundamental question is whether Earth civilization can maintain its technology level long enough for the colony to grow on its own, even if the supply ships stop coming. If yes, then humanity will pass the single-planet Fermi Great Filter.

@SamTwits My true moral error was creating Tesla & SpaceX at same time, while avoiding general mgmt chores at Tesla (focusing only on product & engineering). Tried to have my cake & eat it too, which failed.

@GokuAurelius @Erdayastronaut Roughly 800 to 1000 per year. That’s about what’s needed over ten years to create the fleet to build a self-sustaining city on Mars. City itself probably takes roughly 20 years, so hopefully it is built by ~2050.
