SpaceX Starship is fucking big. Nearly 400 feet tall, it's the height of a 40-story skyscraper. It's more than 3x mass & generates 3x the thrust of Saturn V. It's the biggest and most powerful rocket humanity has made. And to top it all off it's fully reusable 🔥 @elonmusk
@elonmusk@rschmied@spideycyp_155@SawyerMerritt@SpaceX So there isn’t an actual technical difference that justifies this shakedown. Unless the whole Starlink fiasco is extremely vulnerable to hacking. Not a good admission. What would these massive resources be we all would like to know?
@elonmusk@spideycyp_155@SawyerMerritt@SpaceX If it actually cost that much, for those reasons, to deploy and maintain that few downlinks for a month then Starlink will be an absolutely financial disaster.
@ajtourville@wholemars@elonmusk Absolutely. Even before buying Twitter Elon should make it clear that anyone who disagrees with him will have their service withdrawn. That's the best possible advertising.
