“Welcome! Orbital space centers and mass drivers on the Moon will be incredible. [@milichab] I’m joining @SpaceX and @xai with @JasonBud. X is the company realizing science fiction - reusable rockets, humanoid robots, data centers in space, and more. Almost 10 years ago, I joined SpaceX as an intern on Dragon 2 crew displays. This was in the era of the first rocket”
“@JasonDanheiser @WholeMarsBlog @28delayslater Self-driving cars & useful humanoid robots require a sophisticated understanding of reality. I am increasingly convinced that they are on the path to solving AGI. Should AGI be solved? I don’t know, but humanity is moving rapidly in this direction whether I like it or not.”
“@WholeMarsBlog Eventually, you will probably be able to upload a good approximation of your memories & mind state to “the cloud” with the ability to download it to a humanoid robot. You obviously won’t be quite the same as you are today.”
“@WholeMarsBlog But when did they start vs when did we form the humanoid robotics team at Tesla?”
“Starship will hopefully depart for Mars at the end of next year with Optimus explorer robots! [@MAstronomers] This is Mars! 140 million miles away from us!”
“😂 [@iam_smx] Tesla Optimus robots, after learning that Elon Musk will power them with super-advanced Grok AI and send them to Mars on the world’s most powerful rocket, Starship.”
“Mars is a planet purely of robots (for now) [@SpaceX] Falcon Heavy will launch the Rosalind Franklin rover to Mars in late 2028”
“SpaceX will try to catch largest ever flying object with robot chopsticks. Success is not guaranteed, but excitement is! https://t.co/75yMgIWOwE https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=wAuzCjipF00”
“Kids love using Grok Imagine, because they can speak their ideas and watch the images update immediately [@imPenny2x] Grok imagine collaboration with my 6 year old daughter. Prompt: A green dragon flying a rocket ship to mars to meet Elon Musk. He’s in space and there are a bunch of stars that look like robots. He’s gonna make an invention where you can golf on the moon without the balls”
“12th mission of our Dragon robotic space freighter in support of the @NASA @Space_Station https://t.co/vlGbGLgBcR https://x.com/spacex/status/897133836441534464”
“@AJamesMcCarthy @WholeMarsBlog Correct. Truly shameful of the media to dredge up an injury from two years ago due to a simple industrial Kuka robot arm (found in all factories) and imply that it is due to Optimus now.”
“@WholeMarsBlog I would like to have a strong influence on AI/robotics, not control it. I don’t think any one person should control it.”
“@SPEXcast @Robotbeat @John_Gardi @SpaceX Very dependent on volume, but I’m confident moving to Mars (return ticket is free) will one day cost less than $500k & maybe even below $100k. Low enough that most people in advanced economies could sell their home on Earth & move to Mars if they want.”
“RT @teslaownersSV: The future with Robotaxi and Starship is awesome https://t.co/gP6Yu8D9CO”
“@Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard I will do a full technical presentation of Starship after the test vehicle we’re building in Texas flies, so hopefully March/April”
“@Robotbeat @John_Gardi @SpaceX This will sound implausible, but I think there’s a path to build Starship / Super Heavy for less than Falcon 9”
“@Erdayastronaut @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard Stainless steel is correct, but different mixture of alloys & new architecture. Unlike Atlas, Starship is buckling stable on launchpad even when unpressurized.”
“@Robotbeat @justpaulinelol @Teslarati Sure. Have to do it on Mars from beginning. Will ultimately do that on Earth too, so rocket flights will be zero net carbon long-term.”
“@SPEXcast @McMurchie @Robotbeat @John_Gardi @SpaceX Just planning on keeping the public informed about progress & setbacks. Will be some RUDs along the way, but excitement is guaranteed!”
“RT @cb_doge: Cathie Wood on Tesla and SpaceX: "This will be considered as the year of the RoboTaxi. We're also learning more about Elon Mu…”
“@McMurchie @SPEXcast @Robotbeat @John_Gardi @SpaceX The goodwill of the public is critical to Starship’s success”
“@AstrumMining @SPEXcast @McMurchie @Robotbeat @John_Gardi @SpaceX Moon first, Mars as soon as the planets align”
“@_Synders @John_Gardi @martinengwicht @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard Starlink V1 on Falcon, V2+ on Starship. Basically, all future products will contain either the word “star” or “link” 😀”
“@Erdayastronaut @John_Gardi @w0lfyxD @Robotbeat @SpaceX Yeah, but simpler. Needed for landing burn or engines will suck in a bubble.”
“@Erdayastronaut @ludan27 @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard Seriously! We are just on the wrong planet for SSTO. Mars, no problem.”
“@John_Gardi @w0lfyxD @Robotbeat @SpaceX Starship & Super Heavy will press tanks autogenously even in version 1. Very important, as helium costs more than oxygen on Falcon, even though liquid oxygen is 2/3 vehicle mass & helium weighs basically nothing.”
“@Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @_Synders @John_Gardi @martinengwicht @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard You def don’t want electric pumps on a rocket engine! Raptor turbopumps alone need 100,000 horsepower per engine. That’s not a typo.”
“@Robotbeat @Jon128123 @Diver2441 @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @_Synders @John_Gardi @martinengwicht @JeromeJaccard @alan1bernard SpaceX metallurgy team developed SX500 superalloy for 12000 psi, hot oxygen-rich gas. It was hard. Almost any metal turns into a flare in those conditions.”
“@S3XYstarship @cb_doge If current trends continue, robots will far outnumber humans”
“@ludan27 @Erdayastronaut @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard Yes, but single stage to orbit with no payload is pointless. Add Super Heavy rocket booster & orbital payload is gigantic. Only need booster on Earth, due to deep gravity well & thick atmosphere. Starship alone on moons & Mars.”
“@Erdayastronaut @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard While there are some material similarities, Starship is very different from the Atlas design”
“RT @fermatslibrary: In 1964, John McCarthy, the creator of LISP, proposed sending a 5,000-pound AI-powered robot to search for life on Mars…”
“@Robotbeat Humanity was on a path of increasing launch cost and diminishing capability, so it might never have happened. SpaceX is an attempt to change that, but we still have a very long way to go to make life multiplanetary.”
“@John_Gardi @w0lfyxD @Robotbeat @SpaceX True”
“The tower has caught the rocket!! https://t.co/CPXsHJBdUh”
“@epoxy101 @Robotbeat @John_Gardi @SpaceX At least 10X cheaper”
“RT @BrentM_SpaceX: Casual robot fights @xai Christmas party. Now back to work! 🤣 https://t.co/wp6wfgSa3Z”

“@Malcolmmarsman @TheMuddySchmuck @martinengwicht @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @JeromeJaccard @Robotbeat @alan1bernard This test hopper is at full body diameter of 9m / 30 ft, just not full height. Super Heavy will be full height & diameter.”
