@SmileSimplify @Erdayastronaut Moving to an enclosed (fairly) clean room environment for SN2 in Jan, although, unlike aluminum, stainless steel welding is not super sensitive. Our main issue here in Boca is that it can get very windy, which affects weld arc & steel melt pool.

@Erdayastronaut No, will be autogenous from the start, tapping hot CH4 & O2 from Raptor

@teslaownersSV @TonyCrisostomo @Erdayastronaut Yeah

@Erdayastronaut Best would probably be an autogenous laser weld, but we need more precise parts & fixtures. Hopefully get that done in 2020.

@Erdayastronaut Almost everything is different. These parts are stamped vs manually bump-formed & TIP TIG welded vs flux core. Higher precision, stronger joints & 20% mass reduction.

@DJSnM We use that process for the Raptor nozzle jacket. The knuckles of this dome are stamped in Michigan with a 4000 ton car body press, which costs much less for same outcome.

Almost three now. Boca team is crushing it! Starship has giant dome 🤣🤣 https://t.co/qTN2TU02pb

@donnyraywoody @flcnhvy @kulpability @NASA Haha true

@flcnhvy muffin or not-muffin

@realRickyReeves @Erdayastronaut @NASA Crew Dragon is capable of propulsive landing, but would require extensive testing to prove safety. Better to focus on Starship.

@kulpability @NASA New technology development schedules tend to exhibit a version of Zeno’s Paradox — at any given point, you’re halfway there

@kulpability @NASA Crew Dragon should be physically ready & at the Cape in Feb, but completing all safety reviews will probably take a few more months

Simulation of first crewed flight of Falcon 9 / Dragon 2020 @NASA https://t.co/BSDPYTcVIG

8 years later, the simulation is mostly real

@vincent13031925 @Tesla @jsrdctz Amazing work by Tesla China team!! ❤️❤️

@28delayslater 🤣🤣

@BrianGilbert_ @Tesla @AusTeslaOwners Tesla app based payment will soon be rolled out WW. It’s tough making functionality work across so many regulatory domains.

@BrianGilbert_ @Tesla @AusTeslaOwners Is purchasing through the Tesla app not working?

@teslaownersSV @iam_preethi I def believe in the ethical treatment of animals & taking action of climate, but these are mostly separate moral issues

@EvaFoxU @TeslaHistorian @TeslaOwnersofMA @JohnnaCrider1 @vincent13031925 @boringcompany Nice
