@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @flightclubio Mass of initial SN ships will be a little high & Isp a little low, but, over time, it will be ~150t to LEO fully reusable

@SciGuySpace Mailing Dragon dock with Space Station is much harder than docking with our own ship for refilling. Not a problem.

@SciGuySpace They need to go all-in on reusability or be utterly uncompetitive. Rockets are no different from other transport technologies, just harder to make reusable. No one would buy a single-use airplane, car or even bicycle! You’d need to tow another car just for the return trip 🤣

@Erdayastronaut @dauqhx @universal_sci Starship propellant is ~78% oxygen, so an O2 plant on the moon would be enough. Otherwise, we could brute-force it with tankers to low Earth orbit. That’s probably faster.

@PalmerLuckey Exactly. Crimea was a sanctioned region, which is why our beams were not activated there. SpaceX cannot violate sanctions at the request of a foreign government – that would be a felony criminal action. We did not receive a request from the US government.

@Erdayastronaut @i_gvf @SciGuySpace Exactly. Chartering a dedicated 747 flight around the world costs less than buying a small, single engine turboprop plane. In the same way, a giant reusable rocket flight is way cheaper than a tiny expendable rocket that can be used only once.

@TrungTPhan I came to the (obvious) conclusion that a radical improvement in rocket technology was needed to make life multiplanetary. That required creating a company, as success was not in the set of possible outcomes for the existing rocket companies.
