@SpaceForceDoD @AF_Academy Congratulations again! Starfleet begins …

@marcelzimmer @parth_dhawale @Tesla The way it should be!

@AF_Academy You’re welcome! Very exciting times ahead for space.

@bluemoondance74 @MichaelCanary02 @Erdayastronaut @dwesterster Raptor is going through many development tests. Merlin is doing acceptance tests, as the design is stable. Depending on how you count them, there are about 6 engine stands operating in parallel.

@tobyliiiiiiiiii @MichaelCanary02 @Erdayastronaut @dwesterster No, as the header tanks are quite small relative to main (~30 tons vs 1200 tons). Only uses very tip of the nose.

@MichaelCanary02 @Erdayastronaut @dwesterster No, oxygen header tank in nose is important to keep center of mass forward during atmospheric entry

@PPathole @xkcdComic 🤣🤣

@Erdayastronaut @dwesterster Similar, but seemingly small changes can have surprisingly big effects

@jgrano305 @AusTeslaOwners Should be available as an in app purchase next month

@AusTeslaOwners You’re right, will fix

@TeslaGong @vincent13031925 @flcnhvy Good point. Yeah, Remdesivir is sounding very promising!

Orbital human spaceflight returns to the Cape in six weeks!

@Erdayastronaut @dwesterster Trying have fewer parts, so strakes are unlikely. Some very counterintuitive CFD results in both hypersonic & subsonic regimes. Starship does controlled falling more than flying.

@Erdayastronaut @dwesterster Flaps, actuator & static aero are undergoing redesign for mass reduction & simplicity

@CovelloMassimo @Tesla Will do

@flcnhvy True

@Erdayastronaut @dwesterster Exactly
