SpaceX engineers spent several days inspecting Ship 40 in the waters off Christmas Island. They collected heatshield samples and gained vital insight into how the vehicle handled reentry with improvements now planned on future vehicles

Moonbase Alpha will be so cool.

And we want to make it so that anyone can go to the Moon if they want.

Terafab Texas will be the largest and most valuable building on Earth by far.

And it will be stunningly beautiful.

Elon Musk on SpaceX's Q2 earnings call:

"Our internal projection for reaching $1 trillion in revenue have moved up from 2031 to 2030; There's a nonzero chance of that being in 2029."

Starship still floating in the ocean

[Omar Pimentel @OmarJPimentel]

Anon. I feel like I need to put into perspective what you’re looking at here.

This skyscraper just came screaming back into Earth’s atmosphere at ~26,000 km/h, streaming live video all the way, and soft-landed on the opposite side of the planet with pinpoint accuracy. A drone overhead and naval assets were a stones throw away capturing different angles.

It’s easy to get numb to this because it’s SpaceX. But the level of capability, resourcefulness, and execution they’ve built is honestly hard to wrap your head around.

Way way beyond even the world’s most well resourced nation states. “Great powers” couldn’t do this even if they wanted to.

Great video of Starship launching

[Tesla Owners Silicon Valley @teslaownersSV]

BREAKING: SpaceX will attempt to catch the Starship at the next launch.

[Sawyer Merritt @SawyerMerritt]

SpaceX's Starship rocket just performed a flip maneuver and precisely splashed down on target in the Indian Ocean next to a few buoys with @Starlink on them. The softest splashdown we've seen yet.

SpaceX employees ended the stream chanting "USA! USA! USA!"🇺🇸

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Anyone can visit the Starship factory and launch site in Texas, as it is right next to on the public highway. It is incredibly inspiring to see!

Cathie Wood just explained why the establishment will never stop coming for Elon Musk.

And the reason is worse than they think.

Wood: “Tesla was an environmental move, which I think a lot of people attacking his cars… they’ve forgotten.”

They didn’t forget. You don���t forget thirty years of marching and petitioning and begging for the machine that saves the planet.

Someone built it. Forced every automaker on Earth to follow.

Then they turned on him the moment he delivered exactly what they asked for.

Not because he failed them. Because he made them unnecessary.

A solved problem is an existential threat to every institution built to solve it. Kills the funding. Kills the committee. Kills every career that exists to manage the crisis rather than end it.

Wood: “I think he’s the Thomas Edison of our age… he wants to do the right thing to transform the lot of most of humanity.”

Edison was hated too. By the people who sold candles. Every revolution looks like an attack to the people it makes obsolete.

Wood: “What we learn about material science and technologies… is going to help us here on Earth as well.”

SpaceX is not an escape. It is a forge. Build under the most brutal conditions in the solar system and every breakthrough comes home.

Most people at his level stop building and start protecting what they have.

Musk picks the hardest unsolved problem on Earth and runs straight at it.

That is not what terrifies them. What terrifies them is he does it without their funding, without their approval, without a single thing they can hold over his head.

A man you cannot buy is a man you cannot control. And a man you cannot control who keeps solving the problems you profit from is the most dangerous human alive.

They will spend their careers trying to tear him down.

Their grandchildren will live in the world he built anyway.

🚀 Historic! The Starship's Super Heavy was perfectly captured by the Mechazilla tower without touching the ground! Approximately 70 meters high and weighing over 200 tons, it descended with surgical precision.

[X Ethan @XEthanai]

The view astronauts experience during extravehicular activity is both breathtaking and humbling. Even watching the footage inspires a profound sense of awe. It serves as a powerful reminder that, in the vastness of the universe, humanity is remarkably small.

[Rocketry @SpaceNews92]

Most rocket companies lock in designs years early... but SpaceX just ripped up Starship’s nosecone blueprint. They ditched the heavy header tanks entirely and switched to a sleek centerline propellant transfer system—slashing slosh nightmares, dead weight, and crazy plumbing under extreme G-forces. This one pivot unlocks easier orbital refueling and the path to Mars. Mind-blowing engineering evolution you need to see!

Elon Musk and the head of NASA agreeing that antimatter propulsion is the ultimate way to reach the stars.

We're in the best timeline folks.

[Tesla North America @tesla_na]

A Model Y driver started experiencing a medical emergency with chest pain mid-drive & called his son.

His son then remotely rerouted the car – which had FSD Supervised enabled – to the nearest hospital & let them know the vehicle was en route. ER staff were standing by on arrival.

Doctors later confirmed the quick reroute likely saved his life.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

The scale of what is to come has no precedent

[Mario Nawfal @MarioNawfal]

The Tesla Model Y did something no EV has ever done in Australia.

It became the country’s best-selling vehicle overall.

5,605 sales in May.

More than the Ford Ranger.

More than the Toyota HiLux.

For a market famous for utes and long-distance driving, that is a very interesting plot twist.

Starship is a very big rocket
