@TGMetsFan98 @KlotzAdam @NASASpaceflight @Erdayastronaut Yeah. Although, if it fails right at the end, some landing pad repair will be needed to fill in the crater.

@flcnhvy @NASASpaceflight @Erdayastronaut Minor

@KlotzAdam @NASASpaceflight @Erdayastronaut Understanding exactly how the body flaps control pitch, yaw & roll during descent, such that the ship is positioned well to relight, flip & land, would be a big win

@NASASpaceflight @Erdayastronaut But, a RUD right off launch pad is also possible. Fortunately, SN9 is almost ready.

@NASASpaceflight @Erdayastronaut Stable, controlled descent with body flaps would be great. Transferring propellant feed from main to header tanks & relight would be a major win.

@Kristennetten @teslaownersSV @TesLatino Faults will never be zero, but at some point the probability of a fault will be far lower than that of the average human

@teslaownersSV @TesLatino We measure this primarily in intervention probability. This update addressed several issues, resulting in perhaps ~1/3 fewer interventions. Many of the improvements consist of fixing silly bugs vs grand eureka moments. True for most beta releases in my experience.

@TesLatino Thanks to a great Autopilot/AI team working super hard! Doing “neural nets” without testing them against reality has led some groups to overestimate what they’re doing. Reality is the hardest sim.

@auchenberg Latency will improve significantly soon. Bandwidth too.

@teslaownersSV This build should be noticeably better with interventions

@RationalEtienne @teslaownersSV @toadmeister Yes

@teslaownersSV @toadmeister I’ve spent more than half my life in California & love the state. But, frankly, I think CA has the winning-for-too-long problem. Like a sports team with many championships, it is increasingly difficult to avoid complacency & a sense of entitlement.

@toadmeister And … Sweden is still right with zero deaths Oct 29 https://t.co/b0LyGOtobI

@TOCNewYorkState True. Also, fewer heart attacks, as way easier to pump blood in 37% gravity.

@MalekKhelifi24 @9inety6Prince @engineers_feed Now we’re talking. Also, Stephenson 2-18 is in the constellation Scrotum haha.
