“SpaceX & Tesla comp is same or better than other companies. Big diff is that we don't outsource manufacturing, retail sales or service.”

“@DonaldJTrumpJr @SpaceX @realDonaldTrump 🚀”
“@AdrianDittmann Well, then I think Neil will be pleasantly surprised by what SpaceX does in the future”
“@Manic_Marge @SpaceX True ♥️”
“@SawyerMerritt Competing with SpaceX is tough”
“@ajtourville @SpaceX This is now possible”
“@TheBabylonBee He will rocket straight to the top!”
“@Acyn This Community Note is false. SpaceX could have brought the astronauts back last year, but Biden pushed the return past the inauguration date. Legacy media is NOT a reliable source.”
“Rocket reentry is a lot faster and hotter than last time, so odds of making it are maybe even, but we should learn a lot either way”
“@chainsawdotcom @CL207 SpaceX Starlink bought a tiny – not large – ad package to test effectiveness of Twitter advertising in Australia & Spain. Did same for FB/Insta/Google.”
“@MarcusHouse @artzius Current plan is to increase base Raptor thrust to ~230 tons or ~500 million lbs & increase booster engine count to 32 or 33”
“@josh_bickett @ajtourville @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX Yeah. By default, engine with least lever arm would shut down if all 3 are good.”
“@thejackbeyer @NASASpaceflight @BocaChicaGal @NicAnsuini Our focus is on reliability upgrades for flight on Booster 7 and completing Booster 9, which has many design changes, especially for full engine RUD isolation.”
“@tunguz He is just plain wrong. Almost the entire founding team of @SpaceX was over 30. Over half of the founding team of Tesla was too.”
“RT @DimaZeniuk: Elon Musk in the United States: • Tesla’s HQ and factories • SpaceX’s facilities and launch sites • Starlink’s operations…”
“@Thomas_Sergeant @beffjezos My “net worth” will just track SpaceX+Tesla market cap, so will be whatever that is as a percentage of GDP”
“@Jaydev_Chauhan_ Yeah, SpaceX team is cranking hard!”
“@arstechnica SpaceX Crew Dragon ships to the Cape in about 3 months”
“@CSI_Starbase Agreed, we recently made this change & many others. An intense effort is underway to achieve robust engine containment in case of RUD to protect booster, other engines & launch ring.”
“@thesheetztweetz Full & rapid reusability is the holy grail of orbital rocketry”
“RT @SpaceX: Falcon 9 and Dragon vertical at pad 39A in Florida. Targeting Tuesday, June 10 for launch of Ax-4 → https://t.co/LU1wyD7X9s htt… http://spacex.com/launches/mission/?missionId=ax-4”
“RT @JonErlichman: Age of these businesses: Tesla: 22 years SpaceX: 23 years Google: 27 years Netflix: 28 years Amazon: 31 years Nvidia: 32…”
“Thoughtful Op-ed in Space News much appreciated https://t.co/CJq5g3NIEK http://spacenews.com/op-ed-despite-spacex-setback-future-of-private-space-exploration-is-bright/”
“@archillect Sorry, probably going to be a lot of rocket pics from @archillect 🤣🤣”
“@oneunderscore__ @ParkerMolloy @2sunsky @ashleyfeinberg You’re welcome to come by SpaceX, but please stop assuming I’m against all journalists. This is not true. Something needs to be done to improve public trust in media.”
“@cnunezimages @SpaceX @SpaceIntellige3 💯”
“@SawyerMerritt @SpaceX I and all employees of SpaceX passed random drug testing for years. NASA received all those results.”
“RT @SpaceX: Falcon 9 first stage separation and flip maneuver https://t.co/VWcC2zjnDB”
“@yousuck2020 @SpaceX That’s the first BFR airframe/tank barrel section made of a new carbon fiber material”
“@Erdayastronaut @rweb11742 The most amazing thing about rocket engines is that they *sometimes* don’t blow up! The amount of power going through them boggles the mind.”
“@Teslarati No matter what, we need to pressurize the production system. Rocket design is relatively easy, making one is hard, making many is extremely hard. Manufacturing is underrated.”
“@FutureJurvetson @SpaceX Indeed. It is not widely understood that SpaceX has the most advanced 3D metal printing technology in the world.”
“Most recent rocket took max damage, due to v high entry velocity. Will be our life leader for ground tests to confirm others are good.”
“Launch & landing can be seen on the https://t.co/bDd3GxQXMC webcast or in person from Cape Canaveral public causeway at 8:33pm local tmrw http://SpaceX.com”
“@bscholl That’s why SpaceX does its own tooling”
“RT @SpaceX: Super Heavy moving to the pad at Starbase https://t.co/4jZqZe3YTc”
“@raines1220 LiDAR also does not work well in snow, rain or dust due to reflection scatter. That’s why Waymos stop working in any heavy precipitation. As I have said many times, there is a role for LiDAR in some circumstances and I personally oversaw the development of LiDAR for the SpaceX”
“@RationalEtienne @Adamklotz_ SpaceX needs to pass through a deep chasm of negative cash flow over the next year or so to make Starlink financially viable. Every new satellite constellation in history has gone bankrupt. We hope to be the first that does not.”
“@existentialcoms Combined Tesla+SpaceX market cap is now over $1.2T, which means “$4.9B” is less than 0.4% of combined company value”
“@SpaceXFan97 @alexmd2 @SpaceX 320 bar is achievable, maybe even 330”
“RT @cb_doge: BREAKING: SpaceX is deploying Starlink kits to aid communication in the affected regions in Thailand and Myanmar. https://t.co…”
“RT @SpaceX: Falcon lands for the 600th time! https://t.co/Zu42NkBnxN”
“@lrocket @thesheetztweetz Yeah”
“@WatchersTank @SpaceX 33”
“RT @SpaceX: Sunset at pad 39A https://t.co/gSr01sEoVa”
“@Erdayastronaut We’ve already done a lot of iteration on ship. For rapid reusability, booster must return to launchpad, so inert mass impacts ascent, boostback & landing burns. Triple whammy. Also, booster flight rate is ~5X that of ship, so multiple mass $ cost by 5.”
“@existentialcoms That article was pushed as propaganda to counter IMF study showing fossil fuel subsidies to be $5 trillion/year. Even if $4.9B was true, combined market cap of Tesla & SpaceX is $80B. Where did the other $75B come from? Ass 🎩 …”
“Deeply honored and appreciative of the trust that @NASA has placed in @SpaceX for the future of human spaceflight”
“@PPathole @Rainmaker1973 The amazing part will be having an orbital rocket that is fully & rapidly reusable with any payload at all! Everyone else gave up when they realized that their fully reusable payload<0. We still have a long way to go.”
“@MrManderly @mysteriouskat @Independent @rustyrockets Good point. Politicians & political parties should be supported on their merits, not like they are one’s favorite sports team.”
