All systems are looking good, and weather is favorable for liftoff. Propellant load is about to begin for Falcon 9’s launch of the USSF-481 mission from California → https://t.co/MyJeKYn7iE
The next generation Starlink V5 has a smaller form factor and lightweight design with greater power efficiency.
With speeds up to 375+ Mbps, Starlink V5 delivers reliable home internet for streaming, video calling, gaming and more.
Available in select areas.
SpaceX has used thrusters to position spacecraft for decades.
Making them work in a vehicle instead of a vacuum took all-new hardware & controls.
Every usable void in the car is packed with Carbon Fiber Overwrapped Pressure Vessels (COPVs)
More compressed gas on board = more flight time

Old friends are the best friends. Jensen rocks.
The Star Mind computer being co-engineered by SpaceX and Nvidia is far better than almost anyone expects and will reach volume production next year.
Working with the incredibly talented Nvidia engineering team is pure joy!
