@Erdayastronaut How exciting is that though!

Oh no, not more changes to my video. I can’t do this anymore 😭 luckily we did already touch upon this scenario in the video, but now it needs to change language from “they could” to “looks like they’re going to”

@MarcusHouse What do we think the speed ratio will be? 1.5 or more?

Annnnd... we have lift off of booster 19! 😛

@considercosmos @sxsw Love it you guys come to UK for a tour

Huge thanks to everyone who stopped by at @sxsw Space House this weekend! We had over 250 people don headsets and rumble vests for Rocket Launch VR!

@NASASpaceflight Imagine side by side dual catches of super heavy on pad 1 and 2

@lifeatstagezero Looks great

I was loathe to make a video about my new love obsession. Last one I did that for was 36 and that didn't age well. I couldn't NOT do one for this amazing work of art and technology so here is hoping for a better result

@MarcusHouse I'm guessing it makes no difference if the arms are longer as need to travel further to close in. But I'm no expert lol nice that the raptors can throttle

Very little margin of error is a requirement. 🤯

@LabPadre @lifeatstagezero Wiggling its fins nice

Booster 19's grid fins have been tested!

@FelixSchlang @ThreeDeDaniel @Jordanguidry6 Feels like you could become immortal. Is it a upload or a copy is my thinking? Interesting technology

@chocolarda @ThreeDeDaniel @Jordanguidry6 🤯 What triggers me the most is that this basically means that a mind was artificially reproduced. It’s a digital “being”…

67 📸 @Jordanguidry6

@FelixSchlang @ThreeDeDaniel @Jordanguidry6 That fruit fly upload is insane

Nope. Thankfully, they're not interested. 👍 They're right now fascinated with a fruit fly brain that was scanned and transferred over into a virtual body, and how on earth a Warhammer 40k dreadnaught can have an undead saint in it. 😂 But, of course, I learned all there was to know about 67 when it emerged.

From Space Beach to the Space Coast, Terran R progress continued across design, build, test, and launch. 🔧 Vehicle integration progressed across the first and second stage tanks, interstage, and thrust structure. Work continues on second flight hardware in parallel. 🔥 At @NASAStennis , propulsion testing ramped up across Aeon R and Aeon V engines. 🌴 At LC-16, major launch hardware arrived on-site, including the launch mount and transporter-erector strongback.

@Ourworldalpha11 @FelixSchlang I think Super Heavy would make a cool light saber grip.

@chocolarda @FelixSchlang just wait for all 33 Firing full BORE

🚨BOOSTER 19 RAPTOR 3 ENGINES SpaceX just lifted Booster 19 (first V3 Super Heavy) onto the new Pad 2. With only 10 Raptor 3 engines installed. Why only so few engines? Smart risk reduction: New booster design + debut Raptor 3 engines + brand-new pad infrastructure = lots of firsts. They’ll run GSE checks, spin primes, and likely partial static fire(s) first to validate plumbing, deluge, clamps, and engine-pad interaction without risking the full 33. The layout, specifically 2 in the center, 4 on the inner ring, and 4 on the outer ring, looks very intentional. 📸 @Jordanguidry6

@BestMovieMom Brilliant movie

David Bowie initially declined the role of Nikola Tesla in The Prestige (2006). Christopher Nolan flew to New York to personally convince him, telling Bowie he was the only actor capable of capturing Tesla's otherworldly charisma.

@FelixSchlang @SpencerTeague40 Thank you, he's my first, I might have bought way too many rocket baby grows lol

@chocolarda @SpencerTeague40 Congratulations!!!! 😍

@SciGuySpace Brilliant what good investment and collective of brilliant minds and work ethic can achieve

The growth of Starbase over the last decade, from nothing to arguably the world's premiere rocket factory, is remarkable. This image of V3 rolling out is gorgeous.

@colleenliedtke @BocaChicaGal @NASASpaceflight Wow those gridfins look sexy in black! Starting to really look like the finish product! Thank you for sharing

Science Fiction is becoming a reality at Starbase. A V3 Booster fitted with Raptor 3 engines is now sitting on the newly built Pad 2 for testing!

@FelixSchlang @SpencerTeague40 Thanks Felix! I look forward to update, hopefully my new born son is sound asleep so I can watch uninterrupted lol

@SpencerTeague40 @chocolarda I'm giving the full breakdown of my estimate tomorrow on the new episode. The latest official word would be this. Notice the "in about" phrasing. It's not a firm date. x.com/elonmusk/statu…

@Ourworldalpha11 @FelixSchlang That's so awesome! Thank you for the stats! I can't wait to see this bad boy launch!

@chocolarda @FelixSchlang Those 10 Raptor V3 put out more Thrust then Falcon Heavy's 27 merlin's

@FelixSchlang I think for fun @elonmusk should do it. Be cool to see a blue flame come out the rear of a falcon 9!

@chocolarda It might zoom off the pad like a little model rocket. 😂
