“@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”

“RT @cb_doge: ELON MUSK: "I'm a technologist. I build rockets and cars. I derive joy from seeing people enjoy the products that my companies…”

“@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”

“@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”

“@tslaming Starlink V3 has three separate chip designs by SpaceX that are very special”

“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.”

“RT @teslaownersSV: “You’ve got to look at Elon Musk, at SpaceX, Tesla, Neuralink – the guy is our Einstein. I'd like to be helpful to him a…”

“@mark_k @xai This is still 0.5T, but a more recent training checkpoint. 1T model is ~5 days away from finishing initial training. Will be a major step change improvement in coding, long context and skills. The SpaceXAI model factory is finally working. Should be an improved base model”

“@LinusTech @SpaceXStarlink @SpaceX 🇨🇦 😀”

“@teslaownersSV @iamyesyouareno @MarioNawfal The specific area I’m talking about is engineering, which is needed to build the best technology. Encouraging kids to learn how things work is the key. Take apart car engines, toasters, microwave ovens, speakers, etc. Make model airplanes, rockets, cars. As you’re doing this…”

“RT @teslaownersSV: “I cannot be President, and I actually don't want to be President. So, to be clear, I want to build rockets and cars.”…”

“RT @cb_doge: "We should send rockets not at each other, but rather to the stars." 一 Elon Musk https://t.co/GUFdqgXR6m”

“@ErcXspace @SpaceX @FelixSchlang @MarcusHouseGame @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight Great render! The circumferential welds & skin panels will be much smoother in future builds.”

“@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”

“@NASASpaceflight Needs to be level & match booster fittings. We will find out on ~Tuesday.”

“@lrocket @SpaceAbhi Gwynne and I didn’t tell the company, as it would have been demoralizing”

“@jessica_kirsh @SpaceX @TeslaAIBot @Tesla Cool :)”

“@WalterIsaacson Accurate. [Technical note: Linux in 1999 was still early days, whereas Windows had a whole video game dev community to draw upon. In later years with SpaceX & Tesla, I obviously went with Linux. Also, Max was unequivocally wrong that the site wouldn’t work with Windows. It…”

“@TrevorMahlmann @SpaceX Major esthetics improvements coming”

“RT @SpaceX: For the first time in our existence, we possess the means, technology, and, for the moment, the will to establish a permanent h…”

“Provided Dragon 2 demo missions go well, SpaceX is highly confident of being able to fly US astronauts in 2018 https://t.co/usUto6QSi7 http://www.theverge.com/2017/2/16/14640618/nasa-spacex-boeing-astronaut-iss-2018”

“@flcnhvy @SpaceX Small note: latch on post near base is gone & powered Ethernet wire is less obtrusive in production version”

“@TribeHoh @SpaceX @WAStateCommerce You’re most welcome!”

“RT @SpaceX: Initial Super Heavy V3 and Starbase Pad 2 activation campaign complete, wrapping up several days of testing that loaded cryogen…”

“@Scobleizer As I mention in that Joe Rogan episode, I don’t think getting stoned is super helpful for productivity and I obviously have no idea how to smoke a joint 😂 Following that episode, I had to get randomly drug-tested several times a year for almost three years for SpaceX to…”

“Currently looking good for a Sunday night (~8pm local) attempted orbital launch and rocket landing at Cape Canaveral”

“@SpacePadreIsle @SpaceX Great work by SpaceX engineering!”

“@AstroBehnken @SpaceX @NASA @Space_Station Manufactured only 5 mins from LAX!”

“@SciGuySpace Zach made a significant contribution to SpaceX & is a friend. I wish him well as he tries something new.”

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

“@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”

“@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.”

“@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!”

“@Bob_Richards One rocket, slightly toasted”

“@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.”

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

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

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