@Bkin87 a

Send me hot pics & I’ll be right over 😉

I want you too baby

Joe Rogan describes Tesla for 4 mins & 20 secs https://t.co/ju6N683Dd5

@Erdayastronaut @LytovchenkoSerg @John_Gardi Booster center of mass is much lower & more consistent (no payload mass to consider), so still biases towards engine first entry

@LytovchenkoSerg @John_Gardi @Erdayastronaut Technically, the steel is radiatively cooled (not uncooled). T^4 is one of the most interesting things about reality!

@LytovchenkoSerg @John_Gardi @Erdayastronaut Rocket booster temperatures won’t go much above 600 Kelvin on hottest parts of main body & maybe around 1200K on base, which uncooled steel can handle. Starship is around 1700K for a Mach 25 entry, so needs shielding of some kind.

@Malcolmmarsman @Erdayastronaut Prob wise for version 1 to have legs or we will frag a lot of launch pads

@Erdayastronaut Welded, internal, longitudinal hat stringers. To the degree it may need hoop stiffness (prob not), combine with slosh baffles.

@Erdayastronaut The Super Heavy booster is only needed on Earth, so think of this as just “Starship” & sometimes it needs a boost, hence Super Heavy

@AndreTI Vaporized some copper

@teslaownersSV @StrikMichael @JothamKitara Sentry Mode (and Dog Mode) roll out next week

Design requires at least 170 metric tons of force. Engine reached 172 mT & 257 bar chamber pressure with warm propellant, which means 10% to 20% more with deep cryo.

Raptor just achieved power level needed for Starship & Super Heavy https://t.co/NcqnAVWc35

@StrikMichael Sorry, many unexpected challenges with cars coming through Zeebrugge first time. Cars will start moving out in volume tomorrow.

@FancyPantless We’re doing everything we can to get there. It’s a super hard grind.

@notNahuel @SnazzyQ Exactly. Both prices are shown right next to each other & lower price is *actually* the real apples to apples cost vs a fuel car. In fact, for many states in the US, it’s way better.
