The future will be bright and "terafabistic"! Gigantic progess ahead!! @elonmusk @SpaceX

[Michael Federspiel @MFeder]

@aelluswamy Well done!

[Nic Cruz Patane @niccruzpatane]

Just a reminder why electric vehicles are better than gas cars:

[Michael Federspiel @MFeder]

@TimDraper I will consider it. Thanks for your message.

[Michael Federspiel @MFeder]

@andruyeung You got scammed 😆

After a month of using it, I can attest:

This thing is magic.

Whenever you get bit by some bug like a mosquito or a sandfly, you just put this on the bite for a few seconds and the itchiness goes away and it heals way faster.

[Michael Federspiel @MFeder]

@TimDraper So why did you back Elon Musk?

[Michael Federspiel @MFeder]

@TeslaCharging Another Tesla Supercharger should be opened in the Engadine, in the Zernez area.

[Michael Federspiel @MFeder]

@sundarpichai @GoogleAIStudio Fantastic progress! Congratulations to the entire team. I’m delighted to use it.

[Michael Federspiel @MFeder]

@TeslaCharging Fantastic news! A larger stall is finally opening in the Engadine.

@Dogetothemoon @FutureJurvetson It would be nice to see them publicly together again.

[Geiger Capital @Geiger_Capital]

Most of our billionaires and "Titans of Industry" today are in tech or finance…

They make apps or move numbers on a screen. One reason I think Elon deserves respect is that he’s actually building things. Cars, rockets, satellites, chips, factories.

We need more Elons.

Few understand what Elon Musk’s companies are building right now.

• SpaceX is investing ~$100 Billion to build Starbase, Louisiana. Thousands of Starship launches per year. ~10,000+ jobs.

• @Tesla and @SpaceX building the world’s largest chip manufacturing facility: Terafab. It will produce over 1TW of AI compute capacity per year. These custom chips will be for Optimus, Cybercab, and space-based compute. Construction has begun.

• By the end of next year, SpaceX is targeting 10 GW of AI compute online with total power and cooling capacity aimed at ~20GW in Memphis.

• Tesla Optimus V3 will be starting production this year in Fremont. Future production at Giga Texas is expected to scale to 10M/units per year. Giga Texas factory is currently under construction.

• Tesla Cybercab production is underway, and launch is imminent. At scale, Tesla will produce over a million per year. Estimates from Ron Baron show each Cybercab earning ~$40K in profits every year.

• Tesla and SpaceX are each aiming for 100 GW per year of U.S. solar manufacturing capacity.

• SpaceX Gigasat factory in Bastrop, Texas will build the AI1 orbital data-center satellites (plus the solar cells, wafers, PCBs, and other components that power them). Construction is already underway.

• Starlink V3 Satellites have successfully
deployed and will scale. V3 delivers 10x the bandwidth of V2 Sats. With Starship capacity, total network capacity is expected to increase by over 100x.

• Starlink Mobile launching in 2027. Starlink Mobile V2 Satellites will launch from Starship, which will enable high-speed broadband data directly to unmodified phones. SpaceX will compete with AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, etc.

Hundreds upon hundreds of billions of dollars in construction is happening as we speak. The future is unfolding right in front of us.

@elonmusk @stats_feed Hey @elonmusk any updates on @Grokipedia progess and further plans with it?

[X Freeze @XFreeze]

SpaceX’s next chapter is going to look almost magical

Falcon already revolutionized the space industry and now SpaceX launches more than 80% of the world’s mass to orbit

Starship is about to take this to a completely different level

SpaceX is aiming for roughly 2.25 MILLION tonnes of mass to orbit per year by 2032

For perspective, SpaceX put about 2,213 tonnes into orbit in all of 2025

That’s roughly a 1,000X increase in annual mass to orbit

At that scale, the entire way we think about space changes

• Massive Starlink and AI satellite deployments
• Orbital AI data centers
• Huge space stations
• Industrial infrastructure in orbit
• Permanent bases on the Moon
• Enormous amounts of cargo heading toward Mars

For most of spaceflight history, every kilogram sent to orbit was precious

Starship is being built for a future where humanity starts moving millions of tonnes beyond Earth

[Aaron Burnett @aaronburnett]

Just imagine economists from the 1600s arguing about the max GDP of the western hemisphere as a % of UK GDP. Now that’s funny and obvious. Same for space but space has many orders of magnitude more energy and mass to turn into productivity. It’s just a matter of when, and things are accelerating

[Michael Federspiel @MFeder]

Swiss startup @GravisRobotics secured 200 million US dollars reaching unicorn status....well done!

@benln Add me too, please! Greetings from 🇨🇭

[Tobi Mülhauser 🍕 @iamtobi]

Sehr geehrter Herr Bundespräsident @ParmelinG,

mit grossem Respekt und Begeisterung wende ich mich an Sie.

In mehreren europäischen Ländern wurde Teslas Full Self-Driving (FSD) bereits ausgiebig getestet und genehmigt. Die Reaktionen waren durchwegs fasziniert: Die Technologie zeigt, wie sicher und entspannt autonomes Fahren schon heute sein kann, und das sogar mit einem der meist verkauften Autos in unserem Land, per Software-Update.
Auch hier in der Schweiz finden derzeit FSD-Probefahrten statt. Ich habe dazu ein 20-minütiges Video bei einer Fahrt auf der Autobahn in Bern und quer durch die Stadt aufgenommen und würde mich sehr freuen, wenn Sie einen Blick darauf werfen könnten.

Gerne lade ich Sie persönlich ein, FSD selbst auszuprobieren. Eine Probefahrt würde Ihnen hautnah zeigen, welches Potenzial diese Innovation für Verkehrssicherheit, Effizienz und die Zukunft der Mobilität in unserem Land birgt. Vielleicht interessiert sich auch @AnnickDeRidder, die in Flandern/Belgien massgeblich zur Freigabe beigetragen hat und die Begeisterung hautnah miterlebt hat, für einen Austausch.

Ich würde mich sehr freuen, wenn Sie diese Einladung annehmen.

Mit freundlichen Grüssen und besten Wünschen für Ihre wichtige Arbeit

Tobi Mülhauser 🇨🇭
