@kulpability @flcnhvy @Erdayastronaut @ValkyrieBaron11 @NASASpaceflight No, but it’s mostly the same as the ship, except for the thrust bulkhead (31 engines vs 6) — PolitiTweet.org

@sspencer_smb @flcnhvy It’s not all about engineering, although that is my personal favorite. Striving to make products or provide services in excess of what you consume is the noble goal. — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@flcnhvy To be clear, I do think finance & law are important, but too many smart people in the US go into those fields. Also, too many MBAs. — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@raytech247 @flcnhvy @Erdayastronaut @ValkyrieBaron11 @NASASpaceflight Yes, mostly because you can use the ship every week going to the moon instead of every two years for Mars (best case) — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@flcnhvy @Erdayastronaut @ValkyrieBaron11 @NASASpaceflight Would be about 10 times that cost for payload to surface of Mars — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@flcnhvy @Erdayastronaut @ValkyrieBaron11 @NASASpaceflight Starship + Super Heavy propellant mass is 4800 tons (78% O2 & 22% CH4). I think we can get propellant cost down to ~$100/ton in volume, so ~$500k/flight. With high flight rate, probably below $1.5M fully burdened cost for 150 tons to orbit or ~$10/kg. — PolitiTweet.org

@Kristennetten @lexfridman @joerogan 🤣🤣 — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@esecrist50 @Kristennetten @Erdayastronaut @YoavOffek That’s pretty much what happened. The cows weren’t sure what to do (not having encountered a rocket before), so first ran one direction, then the other. — PolitiTweet.org

@clairlemon @Quillette A mandatory tracing app would be insane — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@AndrewFosterWa1 @KillaSarg @Erdayastronaut @ElonHarith @flcnhvy @NASASpaceflight True — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@teslaownersSV @vincent13031925 @joerogan Probably makes sense to have a “Details” section of the app that mirrors everything in the car. Would also allow phone to be used in lieu of car screen if car screen faults for any reason. — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@vincent13031925 @joerogan Franz and I do have absurdly similar tastes 🤣🤣 — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@Godmiller1 @Johnnaaaaaaaaaa @EvaFoxU @Tesla Would cover latitude of London — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@clay_ellis @Tesla Yes — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@TesLatino Peak rate of about half that for version 1 is about right, but heavily dependent on users per cell. Aiming for latency under 20 ms. — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@Johnnaaaaaaaaaa @EvaFoxU @Tesla It will only work for higher latitudes (Seattle) at first, then get progressively closer to the equator — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@Johnnaaaaaaaaaa @EvaFoxU @Tesla Sure :) — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@EvaFoxU @Tesla Way more important than it sounds — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@GavinNewsom Yeah!! — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@Erdayastronaut @ValkyrieBaron11 @flcnhvy @NASASpaceflight A fully & rapidly reusable orbital rocket is fundamental to extending life beyond Earth. Propellant cost is roughly a 1000th of vehicle cost (unless using a foolish propellant). Same principle as cars, planes, boats, etc. — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@Erdayastronaut @ElonHarith @flcnhvy @NASASpaceflight SLS makes me feel sad — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@WhatsupFranks @NASASpaceflight No, they will be smashed beyond repair & corroded — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@flcnhvy @NASASpaceflight Yeah, although hydrogen is not a great choice for a booster engine — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@ABauerle5 A great mystery of the universe — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@NASASpaceflight It’s so tragic that these engines just crash into the ocean every flight — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@flcnhvy @thirdrowtesla @YoavOffek Roundabouts no problem, but dodging distracted human drivers very tricky! — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@PPathole @Erdayastronaut @farrier_nyker @GeetPurohit3 @YoavOffek Looks about right. Ice mining/refining on Mars & maximizing total system efficiency will be hard. CO2 is easy, as Mars atmosphere is mostly that. Also has good amount of N2, which is important for life. — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@Erdayastronaut @YoavOffek In this case, just chilling the gas back to liquid — PolitiTweet.org

Elon Musk @elonmusk

@Erdayastronaut @farrier_nyker @GeetPurohit3 @YoavOffek Yes, converts CO2 & H2O to CH4 & O2. Perfect for Mars! https://t.co/WF9AGgee12 — PolitiTweet.org
