Honestly, this is the most reasonable timeframe I’ve seen Elon say publicly about Starship. Still ambitious, but a reasonable target, at least for refueling. Just hoping we see a catch attempt this year đŸ€ž

First they said it could never be done, then they said it would never be reliable, then they said it would never be worth it. I think they were wrong.

Makes me wonder what the current TWR is of Raptor and what it will be. Wonder if it’s closing in on Merlin’s insane 198:1 TWR yet

Can’t believe this was a year ago already and it’s crazy to think that it’s already flown two more times! Can’t wait for flight four!

This is remarkable! I thought 10 flights of a booster would be a stretch, now they’re at 20! They’re now over halfway to the Space Shuttle Discovery’s record of 39 orbital flights! But B1062 did it in just 3 and a half years, as opposed to Discovery which flew for 27 years!

63 years ago, Yuri Gagarin became the first human in space (and orbit the earth). On this same day, 20 years later, the United States first launched the Space Shuttle featuring its unusual white external propellant tank that was only seen on the first two shuttle missions.

Apart from a relatively small amount of rolling resistance from the wheels on the ground (or treadmill) and the friction of their bearings, the wheels have NOTHING to do with an aircraft's acceleration. Airspeed is what matters, not groundspeed.

Aircraft could take off with a
