“@WholeMarsBlog 🤣”
“@ajtourville @SpaceX Good thread”
“I can’t say for sure that Starship will reach escape velocity, but my hubris certainly has”
“@WholeMarsBlog Products that bring joy are rare”
“@SawyerMerritt @heydave7 @WholeMarsBlog @WSJ Good point, will do”
“@GailAlfarATX @TeslaSolar @Tesla @douglewinenergy @DimaZeniuk @EvaFoxU @DirtyTesLa @WholeMarsBlog @Kristennetten @BrosForDecarb Good article”
“@stevenmarkryan @WholeMarsBlog 🤣👍”
“@ICannot_Enough @WholeMarsBlog Lmaooo absolutely 🤣🤣”
“@lovemesomemusk @WholeMarsBlog Nope”
“@teslaownersSV @heydave7 @WholeMarsBlog @WSJ Call them out on it, I guess. WSJ is supposed to have a high standard for journalism and, right now, they are way sub tabloid. WSJ should be running stories that actually matter to their readers and have solid factual basis, not third-party random hearsay.”
“@heydave7 @WholeMarsBlog @WSJ WSJ has run so many bs hit pieces on me and Tesla I’ve lost count! It’s embarrassing for them, frankly. They once wrote an article saying FBI was about to arrest me, so I called FBI to ask what’s up and they said WSJ article was total bs. Just more shortseller fud.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Haven’t even had sex in ages (sigh)”
“@TeslaHype @WholeMarsBlog Yeah, the character assassination attacks have reached a new level this year, but the articles are all nothing-burgers. I work crazy hours, so there just isn’t much time for shenanigans. None of the key people involved in these alleged wrongdoings were even interviewed!”
“@WholeMarsBlog This is total bs. Sergey and I are friends and were at a party together last night! I’ve only seen Nicole twice in three years, both times with many other people around. Nothing romantic.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Software is the key to the future”
“@SpaceX Falcon rising through fog”
“@SpaceX Falcon over the moon”
“@DolllarPo Service turns on next month, which is same time required to deliver a user terminal, so order now at https://t.co/Q1VvqV58aK http://Starlink.com”
“Starlink now available in 36 countries! https://t.co/nH1zPfd2Om https://www.starlink.com/map”
“Congrats to SpaceX team on record number of launches!”
“@wapodavenport @WalterIsaacson @jeff_foust Interesting. Smart move by China. Expendable rockets have no future.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Tbh, it’s good motivation to work out, eat healthier & maybe take my shirt off outside more than once a year haha”
“@WholeMarsBlog Yeah”
“@SawyerMerritt @SpaceX It’s a start. About 1000 times more mass to orbit per year will be needed to make life multiplanetary.”
“@JohnnaCrider1 @TwitterSupport @Teslarati @WholeMarsBlog 🤔”
“@SpaceX @Space_Station About twice as much useful mass to orbit as rest of Earth combined”
“@Erdayastronaut @LevEakins More accurate word is “propellant”, rather than “fuel”. Starship is ~78% liquid oxygen, ~22% fuel. Propellant cost is of primary importance for a fully reusable rocket, so reusable rockets want high thrust, as thrust below T/W of 1 is irrelevant.”
“@TJ_Cooney @SpaceX Starlink bandwidth varies a lot, depending on user terminal density & time of day. That’s why the long wait in some areas. Throughput is roughly linear with total V1 satellites in operation. V2 satellites are at least 5 times better (conservative estimate) than V1.”
“@TJ_Cooney @SpaceX Starlink is a gamechanger for remote locations”
“@teslaownersSV Autonomous rocket landing on autonomous ship”
“Tesla is to protect life on Earth, SpaceX to extend life beyond.”
“Mars may be a fixer upper of a planet, but it has great potential!”
“@tim_ottawa @teslaownersSV Mars is, admittedly, a fixer upper of a planet”
“@PPathole @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @Caspar_Stanley @IzanRamos2002 Some small tubes & wiring need to be nested in a bigger tube for thermal protection, kinda like conduit in a house. Engines themselves & booster base are extremely robust. High strength stainless steel is bulletproof to a handgun at ~2.5mm thickness. Booster dome is 4mm.”
“@DJSnM @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @Caspar_Stanley @IzanRamos2002 Electric power for booster & ship is needed even when engines aren’t running & incremental power draw of TVC isn’t too bad. We have local supercaps on each engine to deal with power spikes.”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @Caspar_Stanley @IzanRamos2002 Enabling engines to take the heat without shrouds might save over 10 tons, all things considered. Shrouds are also a risk in that fuel leaks could be contained by the shroud, forming a MOX bomb. Booster is purging all 33 engine shrouds in flight to prevent this.”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @Caspar_Stanley @IzanRamos2002 All mass necessitated by an engine design should count as engine mass, eg shrouds, TVC hydraulic power or excess purge gas. Raptors in production now have electric TVC, saving over a ton of hydraulics mass on booster.”
“Dragon launching in 2 mins”
“@Erdayastronaut @SpaceX @Caspar_Stanley @IzanRamos2002 Most importantly, we need to delete or thermally protect remaining secondary structure, so we can remove shrouds”
“Was just up in the booster propulsion section. Damage appears to be minor, but we need to inspect all the engines. Best to do this in the high bay.”
“Starship launch site tonight https://t.co/Len70RGCNf”
“@WholeMarsBlog Absolutely”
“@WholeMarsBlog Problematic”
“@WholeMarsBlog 🤣🤣”
“@WholeMarsBlog Future wars are all about the drones. Human crews of planes or tanks have no chance. One exception: a purely analog, human-controlled vehicle is far more resilient to EMF weapons.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Also, being ruggedized for relentless salt spray & extreme winds & storms in deep ocean is not easy”
“@WholeMarsBlog No, it’s dual, high performance terminals, which are important for maintaining the connection in choppy seas & heavy storms. Still obv premium pricing, but way cheaper & faster than alternatives. SpaceX was paying $150k/month for a much worse connection to our ships!”
“Starlink for boats!”
“Population of Mars is still zero people!”
