@justpaulinelol @NASASpaceflight That’s engine SN. We’re building SN8 of the ship.

@NASASpaceflight SN40 is about to be tested & has several upgrades over 330 bar engine. For reference, 330 bar on Raptor produces ~225 tons (half a million pounds) of force.

Raptor engine just reached 330 bar chamber pressure without exploding! https://t.co/kVKRWksvaB

@Erdayastronaut Yeah, Starship will be a tiny dot at 20km. Hard to see with naked eye. We’ll do lots of flights.

@C_Bass3d @Erdayastronaut @NASASpaceflight @FelixSchlang Very impressive render. Note, legs will be bigger & there’ll be way more stuff in engine bay. Main engines actually do majority of work in turning ship vertical before landing.

@PPathole @universal_sci This might sting a little …

@PPathole The “early investor” part of Tesla is wrong. That bs has been pushed by Eberhard (worst person I’ve ever worked with and that’s saying something!) for years.

@universal_sci Also, there could be long period comets that intersect Earth right now. We just haven’t observed them during humanity’s (very short) recorded history. Comet S-L 9 punched a roughly Earth-sized hole in Jupiter. https://t.co/ne7DM0YAXX

@universal_sci Pretty much

@SteveStuWill @jagarikin Wow

@Booster_Buddies @NASASpaceflight My button-twiddling makes no sense at all 🤣🤣
