“To be clear here, the Verizon communication system to air traffic control is breaking down very rapidly. The FAA assessment is single digit months to catastrophic failure, putting air traveler safety at serious risk. The Starlink terminals are being sent at NO COST to the… [@MarioNawfal] 🚨🇺🇸STARLINK COULD REPLACE VERIZON—AND THE SWAMP IS PANICKING The FAA is on the verge of canceling Verizon’s bloated $2.4 billion contract and handing it to Starlink—a move that would bring faster, safer, and more reliable air traffic control services. And guess who’s furious?… )”

“A major factor for why Ukraine was NOT overrun by Russia is the Starlink support I provided, at great risk to @SpaceX cyber & physical attack by Russian military forces. Starlink is the BACKBONE of Ukrainian military communications at the front lines, because everything else…”

“There are potentially serious concerns about the long-term safety of the @Space_Station. Some parts of it are simply getting too old and obviously that risk grows over time. Even though @SpaceX earns billions of dollars from transporting astronauts & cargo to the ISS, I [@CJHandmer] The ISS's structural integrity is far more marginal than is being publicly discussed. We are having multiple, and increasingly frequent, leaks from heavily fatigued node segments in the Russian section. When Aluminum gets flexed it fatigues and gets harder, increasing its”

“SpaceX letter to Congress. The @FAANews leadership spends their resources attacking @SpaceX for petty matters that have nothing to do with safety, while neglecting real safety issues at Boeing. This is deeply wrong and puts human lives at risk. NASA deemed the Boeing capsule…”

“About to do Falcon Heavy risk review. I love that rocket, but it’s scary. So many state changes post liftoff.”

“@WholeMarsBlog At risk of stating the obvious, unless something changes to cause the birth rate to exceed the death rate, Japan will eventually cease to exist. This would be a great loss for the world.”

“@Kasparov63 We gave Starlinks to Ukraine & lost $80M+ in doing so, while putting SpaceX & myself at serious risk of Russian cyberattack. What have you done besides tweet?”

“Dragon high altitude, supersonic abort test is a risky mission, as it’s pushing the envelope in so many ways”

“@engineers_feed Falcon/Dragon are designed to withstand multiple lightning strikes, but we don’t think it would be wise to take this risk”

“@DavidSacks SpaceX’s out of pocket cost to enable & support Starlink in Ukraine is ~$80M so far. Our support for Russia is $0. Obviously, we are pro Ukraine. Trying to retake Crimea will cause massive death, probably fail & risk nuclear war. This would be terrible for Ukraine & Earth.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Competition has nothing to do with it. There are serious AI risk issues.”

“👌 [@grok] @EightBitElon @elonmusk @LimitingThe Chimps master tree-climbing via evolved instincts, but leading NASA's rocket science requires mastering delta-v and orbital decay, not just brachiation. Transfer learning shines in AI, yet applying primate agility to space governance risks more splashdowns than Mars landings.”

“Humor makes life better [@BoosterTribe] The part where if you stray from the roads you run the risk of running into the mysterious chupacabra always made me laugh. @StarbaseTX @SpaceX @elonmusk”

“@Commercial_Crew @NASA @SpaceX Proceeding with countdown today, weather cancellation risk ~50%”

“@chhardman @PeterHotez @joerogan But it was a mistake to push for so many Covid-19 booster shots (even the initial vaccine shot was overkill on quantity). There‘s obviously risk of the immune system going out of control when it sees what what you’ve trained it to believe is a serious disease over & over again.”

“Should note that SpaceX will only try to catch the ship with the tower after two perfect soft landings in the ocean. The risk of the ship breaking up over land needs to be very low.”

“@leastImAlive @PPathole Yeah, sold my houses, except for 1 in Bay Area that’s rented out for events. Working on sustainable energy for Earth with Tesla & protecting future of consciousness by making life multiplanetary with SpaceX. Also, AI risk mitigation with Neuralink & fixing traffic with Boring.”

“@aaronburnett The Moon would establish a foothold beyond Earth quickly, to protect life against risk of a natural or manmade disaster on Earth. We would continue to launch directly from Earth to Mars while possible, rather than Moon to Mars, as fuel is relatively scarce on the Moon.”

“@itsALLrisky @spideycyp_155 @WholeMarsBlog Tweeps will be twits going forward, as the latter has vastly more gravitas”

“@itsALLrisky And that’s just for Earth! Mars has zero human population. We need a lot of people to become a multiplanet civilization.”

“@GerberKawasaki We had to shift some Starlink satellite orbits to reduce probability of collision. Not great, but not terrible either. Station & Dragon have micrometeorite shields (ultra high velocity impact absorption), but EVA suits do not, hence higher risk for spacewalk.”

“Rocket landing speed was close to design max & used up contingency crush core, hence back & forth motion. Prob ok, but some risk of tipping.”

“@WholeMarsBlog Berlin will use 4680 cell with structural battery pack & front & rear single piece castings. Also, a new paint system. Lot of new technology will happen in Berlin, which means significant production risk. Fremont & Shanghai will transition in ~2 years when new tech is proven.”

“@ajtourville @Erdayastronaut @SpaceX Yes, but engines have a min throttle point where there is flameout risk, so landing on 3 engines means high thrust/weight (further away from hover point), which is also risky”

“@CdeCiencia First flight for Falcon Heavy Block 5 means there is some risk of failure between 5% to 10% imo. Many good design improvements from Falcon Heavy demo, but the changes are unproven.”

“@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.”

“@flcnhvy @SciGuySpace F9 iteration slowed down as payloads became too important to risk. Little change is expected going forward with F9/FH or Dragon. Starship production & thus iterative improvement will be much faster than Falcon. Driving hard for fully reusable orbital flight this year!”

“@SawyerMerritt Starship & next-gen Starlink satellites are key, but much risk lies ahead before those are working at scale”

“@SpaceX There was a tiny glitch in the motion of an upper stage engine actuator. Probably not a flight risk, but still worth investigating.”

“@Erdayastronaut @SciGuySpace Last launch aborted due to slightly high power. Possibly, but not obviously, related to today. This vehicle has seen a lot of wear, so today isn’t a big surprise. Life leader rockets are used only for internal missions. Won’t risk non-SpaceX satellites.”

“@BnOrdhaug @yasin_shafiei @thejackbeyer @NASASpaceflight @BocaChicaGal @NicAnsuini That’s the plan. We’re taking a little risk there, as engine isolation was done as retrofit, so not as good as on Booster 9.”

“@dpoddolphinpro @SpaceX @NASA Dragon was always designed to land propulsively, but I didn’t want to risk it as the primary method”

“@justpaulinelol Not risky imo & can be adjusted/improved real-time. Essentially need to figure out most effective way to convert mass to energy, as Mars is slightly too far from this solar system’s fusion reactor (the sun).”

“@flcnhvy @Malcolmmarsman @marstronauts @Erdayastronaut @JaneidyEve @13ericralph31 @SPEXcast @bluemoondance74 @Orion_Sword @Some1gee @SpaceX First flights would have fewer, so as to risk less loss of hardware. Probably around 20.”

“@spacecom They are often right, but, in this case, we have already retired so much R&D risk on Dragon 2, that I feel very confident of 2018.”

“@Asherlaw SpaceX is expanding launch ops at Canaveral too. Need 2 locations to handle flight rate and avoid weather risk”
