15 years of Elon, fully searchable. The production archive uses Supabase as the source of truth, with 94,952 indexed tweets available in development as a full-archive fallback and a curated annotation layer for context, theory, and how major claims aged.
“@tesla_peter @t0mmyr Actually, we’ve made slight changes, but the range improvement is >90% efficiency”
“@cleantechnica Cool”
“@ZJasko Physics doesn’t care about politicians”
“@jgold310 Coming soon”
“All Model S cars made since late Jan have 402 mile range. This is just making it official.”
“Tesla Model S now first ever electric vehicle to receive EPA range rating above 400 miles! https://t.co/EOTwVfvHS5 https://www.tesla.com/blog/model-s-long-range-plus-building-first-400-mile-electric-vehicle”
“@flcnhvy Absolutely”
“China & Asia Pacific Supercharger usage above pre-covid highs. North America catching up fast. Europe slightly behind. https://t.co/Em23E2AFyO”
“@VitalVegas Looking likely”
“@Mad_Maelstrom @Peter_J_Beck @torybruno @Starlinksat223 @Erdayastronaut Throttling is done by adjusting flow to the ox and fuel preburners. The lower limit of thrust is ox & fuel turbopump injector preburner “stiffness”, essentially when do the preburner elements start flaming out.”
“@SciGuySpace Tank didn’t burst, but leaked at 7.6 bar. This is a good result & supports idea of 304L stainless being better than 301. We’re developing our own alloy to take this even further. Leak before burst is highly desirable.”
“@Peter_J_Beck @torybruno @Starlinksat223 @Erdayastronaut Yeah. Merlin, using a single pintle injector with cold, liquid propellant, needs a longer chamber than Raptor, which uses a large number of coaxial injectors, despite Merlin being less than half thrust. Propellant enters Raptor chamber as hot gas that’s already mixed.”
“@tobyliiiiiiiiii @SciGuySpace Yes”
“@SciGuySpace That’s the goal. There a few known weak points on this test tank, probably capable of more pressure. The second test tank to follow shortly has addressed the weak points.”
“@skysira @joshcohen @tokren1 @Andrew81947993 @FatEmperor @MarkChangizi @gordon_dyce @dvdclstn @Not_Far_Enough @DaphnaRedliner @MLevitt_NP2013 Accurate”
“@vlives23 @LoopedBuffalo @Michaelnardone4 @FutureJurvetson @SpaceXStarlink @SpaceX Sure”
“@Michaelnardone4 @FutureJurvetson @SpaceXStarlink @SpaceX Around 20ms. It’s designed to run real-time, competitive video games. Version 2, which is at lower altitude could be as low as 8ms latency.”
“@FutureJurvetson @SpaceXStarlink @SpaceX It will get even simpler. Just two instructions for Starlink: plug in & point at sky. Can be done in either order.”
“@JimBridenstine @NASA Congratulations Kathy!”
“@mcot2222 @olenamuliarchuk @mrkylefield @cleantechnica Acceptable, if your drivetrain is very efficient & you add a little manga”
“@justpaulinelol @engineers_feed As foretold by https://t.co/LJJCD7BAgX http://stankmemes.com”
“@engineers_feed Stonks”
“lol”
“@Erdayastronaut @i_gvf @SciGuySpace Exactly. Chartering a dedicated 747 flight around the world costs less than buying a small, single engine turboprop plane. In the same way, a giant reusable rocket flight is way cheaper than a tiny expendable rocket that can be used only once.”
“@tobyliiiiiiiiii @physorg_com @nature @SciReports True”
“@olenamuliarchuk @mrkylefield @cleantechnica Battery industry is world champion at bs. “Lithium-ion” doesn’t really mean anything. What matters is cathode & anode material. There are many choices, but nickel cathode with carbon-silicon anode works great.”
“@physorg_com @nature @SciReports I thought this was an Onion article”
“@blue_bnd @olenamuliarchuk @PPathole @mrkylefield @cleantechnica Staggeringly dumb”
“@PPathole @mrkylefield @cleantechnica I got the fuel cell question about 8000 times”
“@rhodanazanin1 @ABC7 @NBCLA @CBSLA It’s getting Biblical”
“@mrkylefield @cleantechnica Exactly, fuel cells = fool sells”
“@realAnishPai Renewable energy passed coal in April https://t.co/1kRCyGXfN9 https://www.eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.php?id=39992”
“@TeslaTruckClub Worth considering”
“@pandabfr @Ophiltry Agreed”
“@Ophiltry Trèy Boucher”
“Catapults are a great way to get somewhere fast”
“@jack Great point. Many articles are retweeted based on headlines that don’t match the content.”
“@jamesrtyrrell Actually, we’re on SN30 for Raptor”
“@Erdayastronaut @nickwijngaards @SciGuySpace Sure. That’s long montage 🤣🤣”
“@engineers_feed Wow”
“@thesheetztweetz @SpaceX @Commercial_Crew @AstroBehnken @Astro_Doug @ingallsimages @NASAKennedy ❤️ the laser beam long exposure shots”
“@nickwijngaards @Erdayastronaut @SciGuySpace Hundreds of improvements in manufacturability primarily (this is by far the hardest problem), mass down, thrust up, Isp up. Current improvement list continues past SN50. As the saying goes, it’s 1% inspiration & 99% perspiration …”
“@John_Gardi @SciGuySpace Also, insulation of a deep cryogen( which I’d call anything that liquifies nitrogen aka 78% of air) is heavy & prone to heat leaks. H2 is hell.”
“Tesla factory workplace safety is 5% better than industry average for manufacturers & improving fast https://t.co/axmInA9fZb”
“@Erdayastronaut @SciGuySpace Important technical note: due to higher O/F of CH4 vs RP1 (oxygen is dense) & significant density increase of subcooled CH4 (plus no common dome insulation needed), plus cryo strength bump of CH4, tank mass of CH4/O2 stage is almost same as RP1/O2.”
“After which they are recycled https://t.co/xuu1ohdz52”
“Tesla batteries are lasting much longer than 200k miles / 320k km https://t.co/z882nf6yv9”
“Moreover, energy produced by Tesla solar deployments far exceeds energy used in our factories https://t.co/IDqf5gWeFt”
“Electric cars produce *much* less CO2 than fossil fuel cars, taking both electricity emission & vehicle production into acount https://t.co/tsk9TXgW67”
