@RichardDawkins Starship is the first rocket/spacecraft capable of making life multiplanetary. What really matters for the preservation and extension of consciousness is extending it beyond Earth to the rest of the solar system and, ultimately, to millions of stars.

@waitbutwhy Max payload of Starship V1 in expendable mode (like the other rockets) is ~200 tons. V3 is expected to be ~200 tons with full reusability and ~400 tons expendable. Length will grow by 20 to 30 meters and thrust to ~10k tons.

@chazman Starlink maintained the connection while Starship was moving at ~17,000 mph through super heated plasma, which greatly impedes the signal

@ashleevance If things go well, SpaceX will put about 50% more tonnage in orbit this year using Falcon, which would be above 90% market share. Once Starship is in full swing building a city on Mars, it will do ~99% of all payload to orbit & beyond, as that objective requires about a megaton…

@ID_AA_Carmack @SpaceX Starship will have a small spin on the way to Mars. Even a tiny gravity vector is better than none.

@SciGuySpace His plan makes no sense. Just a worse version of Apollo. Starship will enable a permanently occupied moon base and even a city on the moon one day.

@TeslaHype @GailAlfarATX Starship is intended to carry a lot of people on tens of thousands of flights, so needs to be extremely reliable over time. It will be.

@GailAlfarATX Starship has 33 engines! If an engine failure is isolated, then many engines greatly increases reliability (Starship only loses <3% of thrust). If not, then reliability is terrible. The difference is at least 2 orders of magnitude.

@MuskUniversity Based on the Falcon launch plan for next year, SpaceX will deliver ~90% of all Earth payload to orbit. Starship will take that to >99% in future years. These magnitudes are madness to consider, but necessary to make consciousness multiplanetary.
