@Gwynne_Shotwell Direct-to-phone from orbit still feels like sci-fi. Direct Earth-Moon call; would there be delay? 🤔

@torybruno Bristol fashion on a rocket recovery ship; nice! You told me a couple years ago you’d do the Astro Ben podcast one day. Door’s still open whenever it works for you. Cheers either way! open.spotify.com/show/4F73IU58j…

Here’s a peek at the recovery vessel. She’s not especially yar, but is very wide of beam, with clean spaces and, definitely, ship shape and in Bristol fashion

@spacegovuk This is the kind of finance momentum the UK has needed for years. Hope it leads to more funding for verticals like orbital manufacturing and in-orbit servicing.

I’m joining @SpaceX and @xai with @JasonBud. X is the company realizing science fiction - reusable rockets, humanoid robots, data centers in space, and more. Almost 10 years ago, I joined SpaceX as an intern on Dragon 2 crew displays. This was in the era of the first rocket landings on barges, long before the Dragon 2 restored human spaceflight to America or Starlink delivered internet from space. Every day since then, I’ve thought about the next steps to land on the Moon - and to build a city on Mars, data centers in space, the brains behind robots, and beyond. There is no better place to build teams and products from the ground up with planetary scale resources. If you’re looking to work on the hardest problems that lay a foundation for humanity’s future to the Moon, Mars, and beyond - DM me.

@NASASpox Agree. Space has been tied to national security since the beginning. Jared's military and flight background makes him one of the most qualified to speak on it.

Because he was asked. Unsurprisingly, you weren’t! Unlike you, he’s got a long list of qualifications that make him exactly the right person to speak on the intersection of space and national security: - founder of a military aerospace company - commercial astronaut - first civilian to spacewalk - NASA Administrator Thank you for your interest in America’s space program.
Aaron Rupar@atrupar

lmao why is the NASA administrator going on Fox and railing against Iran? (this is a rhetorical question -- the answer is that nobody in the Trump administration has actual job duties)

@aaronburnett Gwynne casually dropping that orbital data centers are the long game for unlimited solar. Meanwhile we're still arguing about ground power bills. Space really is the cheat code for abundance!

@StarbaseTX @SpaceX SpaceX basically bought 'do no harm' credits for future pads. Launch to Mars, but keep the mangroves happy first.

@NASA LEO testing the commercial landers first is the right call. Real orbital data cuts risk way better than simulations alone. This cadence upgrade actually feels like it can deliver. 🫡

We have increased the cadence of Artemis missions. In 2027, the Artemis III mission will test one or both commercial landers from SpaceX and Blue Origin in low Earth orbit. In 2028, Artemis IV will become the first Artemis lunar landing.

On March 3, 1969, NASA launched the Apollo 9 mission featuring the first crewed flight of the Apollo lunar module. It was a vital step in preparation for Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin's lunar landing that July. With a similar mission profile, Artemis III will test next-generation hardware and processes in low-Earth orbit in 2027 for the return of astronauts to the Moon in 2028.
