“RT @BigImpactHumans: Hear me out… honeymoons on the actual Moon https://t.co/i6xSjdeMqQ”
“@Truthful_ast @starryxchaos There’s enough of everything on the Moon”
“@luismbat The Moon is faster to make a self-growing city. If civilization continues to grow, we will figure out the universe. If not, nothing else matters.”
“RT @XFreeze: SpaceX will have the first Moon base and it's much closer than most realize Starship can carry the highest tonnage to space o…”
“Life cannot just be about one sad thing after another. There must also be things that make us super excited and inspired about the future. This is one of things. Bigtime. [@elonmusk] SpaceX will build a system that allows anyone to travel to Moon. This will so insanely cool 🚀💫🤩”
“SpaceX will build a system that allows anyone to travel to Moon. This will so insanely cool 🚀💫🤩”
“This will be so awesome 🤩 [@tobyliiiiiiiiii] SpaceX is now shifting their priorities into building a Moon Base - doing so in less than a decade. This proposal from the ISU involves converting a Starship into a lunar base, Skylab-style. Starship’s ~1000m^ 3 of pressurized volume would result in a copious base.”
“@nymbusjp There is enough carbon and hydrogen on the Moon to build a self-growing civilization”
“@canraptor_ They might land something on the Moon before SpaceX and that’s fine by me. I will be one of the first to congratulate them. However, what really matters for the future is being able to land millions of tons of equipment and people to build a self-growing city on the Moon. In… https://t.co/nAOUvzXvQq https://x.com/i/web/status/2020915259561869533”
“@farzyness The priority shift is because I’m worried that a natural or manmade catastrophe stops the resupply ships coming from Earth, causing the colony to die out. We can make the Moon city self-growing in less than 10 years, but Mars will take 20+ years due to the 26 month iteration… https://t.co/stiaf8Tkpu https://x.com/i/web/status/2020910733697954282”
“@BigImpactHumans We hope to make the Moon accessible to anyone who wants to go there”
“Civilization on the Moon! [@DogecoinNorway] Moon 2042”
“@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.”
“Yes [@mark_k] Elon Musk just announced a major strategic pivot for @SpaceX: the company is officially shifting its primary focus to building a "self-growing city" on the Moon. The logic is centered on speed. While Mars missions are restricted by orbital alignments every 26 months, SpaceX can… https://x.com/i/web/status/2020780398372900902”
“RT @beffjezos: Starbase, Moon is gonna be such a dope place to visit. SpaceX getting into electromagnetic mass drivers using Tesla tech is…”
“Mars will start in 5 or 6 years, so will be done in parallel with the Moon, but the Moon will be the initial focus [@ApoStructura] The Moon, then Mars, then the belt, then Jupiter and Saturn, then the stars.”
“@peterrhague As I said in my post, we will still do Mars in parallel, but the critical path to a self-growing Moon city is faster. The Moon city can be made to be self-growing in less than half the time of Mars. The critical juncture for humanity’s expansion beyond Earth is having a… https://t.co/vn78V12Bra https://x.com/i/web/status/2020829121916412129”
“For those unaware, SpaceX has already shifted focus to building a self-growing city on the Moon, as we can potentially achieve that in less than 10 years, whereas Mars would take 20+ years. The mission of SpaceX remains the same: extend consciousness and life as we know it to… https://t.co/HSuKIz1eVd https://x.com/i/web/status/2020640004628742577”

“@beffjezos Mass driver on the Moon or bust!”
“Anything less than K2 is feeble [@SawyerMerritt] This is probably one of the wildest sentences I've ever read.

“@_SFTahoe Up to 1TW/year can be launched from Earth and 1PW/year from the Moon”
“Stretch goal for Starship V4 is 300 tons of thrust per engine with 33 engines, so 10,000 tons of total thrust. That is 3 times the power of the Saturn V Moon rocket. [@XFreeze] SpaceX’s Starship is already one of the biggest flying objects ever built and it’s still getting bigger • With Starship 4, total size could grow ~10–20% • Raptor thrust jumps ~20%, nearing 9,000 tons at sea level • Enough to send 200+ tons to useful orbit • Fully &… https://x.com/i/web/status/2014607481159463407”

“@ns123abc No, probable case (~50th percentile guess) is reaching an annualized rate of 100GW/year of space AI satellites launched from Earth in 3 to 4 years. 100TW/year requires manufacturing satellites on the Moon at massive scale that are shot into deep space with a mass driver, which… https://t.co/cxdjneOadY https://x.com/i/web/status/2014416914550841727”
“The path to the stars is the Moon and Mars [@XFreeze] With Starship, humans aren’t just visiting space It’s a path to become a multi-planetary species This is how humanity breaks the single-planet limit This is how civilizations survive, expand, and explore beyond Earth and Mars is the start”
