@Erdayastronaut How many times can Starship HLS launch from and land on the moon on a single load of fuel/ oxidizer?
How does it refuel?
Is the plan to generate fuel/oxidizer on the moon?
What happens to the Starship when at End Of Life?
Does it ever come back to Earth or Earth orbit?

@TrumpDailyPosts I'm not sure why Autopen is the issue. Wasn't Bidden declared incompetent? I would think that would be the key to undoing anything that happens after the declaration...
English

The “Pardons” that Sleepy Joe Biden gave to the Unselect Committee of Political Thugs, and many others, are hereby declared VOID, VACANT, AND OF NO FURTHER FORCE OR EFFECT, because of the fact that they were done by Autopen. In other words, Joe Biden did not sign them but, more importantly, he did not know anything about them! The necessary Pardoning Documents were not explained to, or approved by, Biden. He knew nothing about them, and the people that did may have committed a crime. Therefore, those on the Unselect Committee, who destroyed and deleted ALL evidence obtained during their two year Witch Hunt of me, and many other innocent people, should fully understand that they are subject to investigation at the highest level. The fact is, they were probably responsible for the Documents that were signed on their behalf without the knowledge or consent of the Worst President in the History of our Country, Crooked Joe Biden!

@rookisaacman @realDonaldTrump Based on what he has done with the polaris missions, I think Jared @rookisaacman will steer NASA true while applying real pressure to the accelerator pedal!
We need to move with safety in mind, but we can't be paralyzed because there is a little risk...

I am honored to receive President Trump’s
@realDonaldTrump nomination to serve as the next Administrator of NASA. Having been fortunate to see our amazing planet from space, I am passionate about America leading the most incredible adventure in human history.
On my last mission to space, my crew and I traveled farther from Earth than anyone in over half a century. I can confidently say this second space age has only just begun. Space holds unparalleled potential for breakthroughs in manufacturing, biotechnology, mining, and perhaps even pathways to new sources of energy. There will inevitably be a thriving space economy—one that will create opportunities for countless people to live and work in space. At NASA, we will passionately pursue these possibilities and usher in an era where humanity becomes a true spacefaring civilization.
I was born after the Moon landings; my children were born after the final space shuttle launch. With the support of President Trump, I can promise you this: We will never again lose our ability to journey to the stars and never settle for second place. We will inspire children, yours and mine, to look up and dream of what is possible. Americans will walk on the Moon and Mars and in doing so, we will make life better here on Earth.
It is the honor of a lifetime to serve in this role and to work alongside NASA’s extraordinary team to realize our shared dreams of exploration and discovery.
Grateful to serve, Jared

I am delighted to nominate Jared Isaacman, an accomplished business leader, philanthropist, pilot, and astronaut, as Administrator of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). Jared will drive NASA’s mission of discovery and inspiration, paving the way for groundbreaking achievements in Space science, technology, and exploration.
Over the past 25 years, as the Founder and CEO of Shift4, Jared has demonstrated exceptional leadership, building a trailblazing global financial technology company. He also co-founded and served as CEO of Draken International, a defense aerospace company, for over a decade, supporting the U.S. Department of Defense, and our Allies.
Jared’s passion for Space, astronaut experience, and dedication to pushing the boundaries of exploration, unlocking the mysteries of the universe, and advancing the new Space economy, make him ideally suited to lead NASA into a bold new Era.
Congratulations to Jared, his wife Monica, and their children, Mila and Liv!

@SpaceX has shared footage of IFT4 SuperHeavy booster's soft splash down!
For reference, that structure is as tall as a 7 story building, and weighs about half a million pounds.
I mean, I could do better, but I'm working on this other really important thing right now...

Am interesting idea...
If you can't avoid being programmed (and you can't unless you leave society), then program yourself. Build your own algorithms that feeds you the information you want, rather than letting others feed you biased content to serve their agenda.

@ianmiles The ATV drive clearly was not in control. The officer stopped quite a ways in front of the atv. The atv couldn't slow down enough to avoid tipping over and throwing the driver into the cruiser's windshield.
The pedestrians were in eminent danger.
English

Everyone seems to be outraged over this clip from New Haven of a police officer deliberately blocking the path of an ATV, causing him to swerve and crash. The rider was hospitalized.
The video is making the rounds without proper context.
Those upset at the officer's actions don't don't actually know much about this area of New Haven.
This road is closed off to motorized vehicles and is intended for hikers and cyclists. As can be seen at the start of the video, cyclists and joggers are using the path.
Had the police officer not gotten in the way of the ATV, there may have been a serious accident involving the pedestrians. The officer's actions saved lives.
The area is frequently full of parents pushing their strollers, the elderly, people walking their dogs, and so on who aren't paying attention to traffic.

@Alphafox78 If my son really wanted one, that's his choice. He'll unfold as he is.
On the other hand, I'm not going to let other people pressure him into being something he isn't...
I mean, look at the end of this video, this kid is just playing with an RC car that happens to be Barbie...

@TansuYegen I got 0-?-2 by the time I had worked through all of the hints, and that 1 or 4 had to be the middle digit. It took me a few minutes to realize which...
Hint 2 has 1 in the middle position and told us that the correct digit wasn't in the right spot, so it has to be 4!
English

@TansuYegen 0-4-2
Hints 1+2 rule out 6
Hint 3 locks down 2 and 0, but they have to be in different places
Hint 1+3 tells us 2 is the last digit, and we can rule out 8
Hint for directly rules out 7, 3 & 8
Hint 3+5 tells us 0 has to be the first digit
Hint 2 now locks 4 in as the middle digit

Chris is a veteran astronaut with a very strong endorsement of @SpaceX's accomplishments during #StarshipIFT3.

@GCapital_LLC I guess I'm missing something from your post...
Were these terms known and in negotiation prior to the Musk interview? If they were, then it seems like Lemon has a point...
If they were only brought up after the interview, then it seems like Lemon tried to trap X...
Timeline?

𝗕𝗥𝗘𝗔𝗞𝗜𝗡𝗚: Don Lemon's astronomical demands during contract negotiations with Elon Musk have been revealed.
Before being let go, the former CNN anchor pitched an out-of-this-world list of demands to Elon for a role on 𝕏.
Lemon asked for a free Cybertruck, a hefty $5 million advance atop an $8 million salary, equity in 𝕏, and even control over news content policy changes.
The wish list didn't stop there.
Lemon wanted a private jet trip to Las Vegas, luxury accommodations, and the company to cover day drinking and massages.
Talks faltered further over Lemon’s additional demands, ranging from executive assistance to a multimillion-dollar marketing budget
Despite these demands, Musk proceeded with the interview for "The Don Lemon Show" debut, only for Lemon to be fired shortly after for these extravagant requests.
Wow, Lemon really wanted to live the high life at Musk's expense. 🤡

@gunsnrosesgirl3 5 blocked 4!
4's trajectory was spot on, it just had a longer flight path than 5, so 5 got there first. 6 just didn't have the decency to GTFO of the way for 4!
How wooooood!

@Rainmaker1973 @BetSpreader Because you are mixing syntax (English and mathematics notation), the reader can easily misinterpret this.
This is the kind of obfuscation that caused Marian probes to overshoot an entire planet...
English

@BetSpreader So poorly written that you repeated exactly what's written. "The question is asking what is half of the cube root of the square root of 64". It's not poorly, there's a mathematical notation in it.

The process to report bot and impersonation accounts needs to be streamlined.
Please like and repost @jessica_kirsh's post to help get @X's and @elonmusk's attention on this problem?
I report a lot of accounts that are impersonating others (in not important enough to impersonate), but I have slowed down because it's tedious.
Can you add image+handle comparison to see if an account has been created or morphed to impersonate an existing account?
🌻 Jessica Kirsh@jessica_kirsh
Question for @X support: For impersonation accounts, I currently have to submit my ID to prove my identity in order to REPORT an impersonator account in hopes of having it REMOVED. It takes a small amount of time (but adds up over time) to submit an image of the front and back of my ID for EVERY impersonator. Could this process be improved upon, please? @premiumbusiness @Support

@jessica_kirsh @X That seems ridiculous. Once you have sent the information in once, you should be fully "verified" and the onus should now be on any account you report.
