“So many spaceships will be born in the Starbase Gigabay [@DimaZeniuk] SpaceX is constructing a $250 million GigaBay at Starbase to accelerate Starship production The 700,000-square-foot facility is designed to build up to 1,000 rockets per year”
“@Erdayastronaut @thesheetztweetz @BryceSpaceTech @SpaceX @Arianespace @ArianeGroup @roscosmos @northropgrumman @ulalaunch @torybruno @isro @RocketLab The Starship fleet is designed to achieve over 1000 times more payload to orbit than all other rockets on Earth combined. Almost no one understands this.”
“@thesheetztweetz @BryceSpaceTech @SpaceX @roscosmos @Arianespace @ArianeGroup @northropgrumman @RocketLab @ulalaunch @VirginOrbit @torybruno Upmass is what matters. One Starship will lift what all Falcons did in Q2 on a single flight.”
“@SpceEnthusiast @tjmurphy_mit @thesheetztweetz @ExploreMars @SpaceX @TheeSpaceDude Over time, outer 20 will have ~300 tons of thrust & inner 8 ~210, so roughly 7500 tons total at sea level or 1.5 T/W for booster+ship”
“The Starship factory is stunning [@jawwwn_] SpaceX COO @Gwynne_Shotwell: “I love working for @elonmusk.” “He’s funny— he’s hilarious actually.” “He focuses on things that I would never have thought were important.” “One is— beautiful spaces.” “This is one of the most beautiful factories I have ever seen.” Via @TIME”
“@thesheetztweetz @QuiltyAnalytics SpaceX default plan was ~65% of global launch mass to orbit this year. Incremental demand might take that to ~70%, so not a major change. Those numbers don’t count Starship. Rough math is ~16 tons * 50 launches = 800 tons. Rest of world is <400 tons (mostly China).”
“@tobyliiiiiiiiii @RationalEtienne @SPEXcast @William_M_Brown @PPathole @thesheetztweetz @waEMD @SpaceX @SpaceXStarlink @WANationalGuard Oh yeah, Starship update coming in about 3 weeks. The design has coalesced. What is presented will actually be what flies to orbit as V1.0 with almost no changes.”
“@Dr_ThomasZ @thesheetztweetz @SpaceX Due to its size & ability to return science instruments even from deep space, Starship will enable a whole new class of science missions”
“@spacesudoer That was not the founding of SpaceX. We were in Russia to negotiate buying some ICBMs and converting them to launch a philanthropic mission to Mars. I later came to realize that the problem wasn’t the will to go to Mars – there is plenty of public interest – but rather that…”

“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”

“@thesheetztweetz @NASAKennedy @SpaceX It is hard to overstate criticality of reusable rockets. No less important than reusable aircraft, cars or bicycles. Essential for humanity to become a multiplanet species & backup the biosphere.”
“@InfographicTony @MarcusHouse @FelixSchlang @considercosmos @GregScott_photo @LunarCaveman @SpaceX @SpacesFuture @TJ_Cooney @LabPadre @Erdayastronaut Three center Raptors of Booster will fire at ~50% thrust during hot staging”

“@thesheetztweetz @BryceSpaceTech @SpaceX @Arianespace @ArianeGroup @roscosmos @northropgrumman @ulalaunch @torybruno @isro @RocketLab Actually, 41 tons for SpaceX in Q3 & aiming for 80 tons in Q4. That said, China launch mass to orbit is extremely impressive.”
“@Erdayastronaut @thesheetztweetz @BryceSpaceTech @SpaceX @Arianespace @ArianeGroup @roscosmos @northropgrumman @ulalaunch @torybruno @isro @RocketLab True”
“@torybruno @ChadBowman0 @thesheetztweetz Now, this sort of nonsense happens all the time with government contracts & everyone knows it. However, in this case, it is money diverted from making life multiplanetary, which is the goal of SpaceX, vs the ULA goal of maximizing dividends to Lockheed & Boeing. Not ok.”

“@UKPJD Similar to SpaceX, the T is like a cross section of an electric motor, just as the X is like a rocket trajectory”
“SpaceX and X are two completely different companies with different shareholders. I own about 40% of SpaceX, so this absolutely illegal action by the dictator @alexandre improperly punishes other shareholders and the people of Brazil.”

“@WSJ Last 3 months were extremely tough, as had to save Twitter from bankruptcy, while fulfilling essential Tesla & SpaceX duties. Wouldn’t wish that pain on anyone. Twitter still has challenges, but is now trending to breakeven if we keep at it. Public support is much appreciated!”
“@cb_doge @Twitter @mayemusk @Tesla @SpaceX Top change requests and features?”
“Check out the new SpaceX EVA spacesuits. These will allow astronauts to do spacewalks.”
“@thevivafrei First I’ve heard. It is not possible for me to fix every aspect of Twitter worldwide overnight, while still running Tesla and SpaceX, among other things.”
“@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?”

“@SpaceX My fav tweet ever”
“@teslaownersSV 🤣🤣 That was me tweeting from @SpaceX when someone else had snatched my name. I was actually one of the earliest Twitter users, but dropped my account because people were tweeting such trivialities at first. @westcoastbill convinced me to get back in.”
