If there are learnings from Starship (Hopper) would that technology benefit Block 5 in any way?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 30. März 2019
No, but for sure the other way around!

Well, make sure to stay in touch. I’ll be there as well. Probably at the Saturn V/Apollo Center for the Feel the Heat package.

Also the intense low frequency vibrations that you can’t hear, but you can feel in your chest

@elonmusk do you have any updates on the falcon heavy being able to land all 3 boosters?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 30. März 2019
We’re going to try. Side boosters come back to Cape, center core lands on droneship. Latter will be coming in v hot & fast, so dicey.

Yeah, Falcon Heavy Block 5 has way more performance than last year’s vehicle. Lot of room to increase side booster load transfer & max Q without changing any parts. FH Block 5 can launch more payload to any orbit than any vehicle currently flying.
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 30. März 2019
Annoying that @ULA perpetuates myth that Delta IV Heavy or Atlas V can do some orbits that Falcon Heavy can’t. This is absolutely false. FH would have to go full expendable for GEO direct, but that’s very rare.

I’m actually shocked you’d even consider an expendable StarShip upper stage instead of just delivering a kick stage! I’ll bet a F9 upper stage and large payload could fit inside the cargo bay of StarShip. Now that would be wild! 🤯
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 30. März 2019
Probably no fairing either & just 3 Raptor Vacuum engines. Mass ratio of ~30 (1200 tons full, 40 tons empty) with Isp of 380. Then drop a few dozen modified Starlink satellites from empty engine bays with ~1600 Isp, MR 2. Spread out, see what’s there. Not impossible.

Hi! When will the retrofits start on S/3/X with HW2 and HW2.5? Very eager to test! :)
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 30. März 2019
Retrofits will start when our software is able to take meaningful advantage of the Tesla FSD computer, which is an order of magnitude more capable. For now, it’s slightly disadvantageous to have Tesla FSD computer, as our software is more refined for HW2.

Anyone who purchased full self-driving will get FSD computer upgrade for free. This is the only change between Autopilot HW2.5 & HW3. Going forward “HW3” will just be called FSD Computer, which is accurate. No change to vehicle sensors or wire harness needed. This is v important.

Are you confident that Crew Dragon will be relatively easy to refurbish now that you have the data from the first orbital flight?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 29. März 2019
Yes. Sensitive propulsion & avionics remained dry. Great work by SpaceX Dragon engineering team. Major improvement over Dragon 1.

How will Starship do interplanetary probe missions? Will it do an injection burn, release the payload then cancel out the burn and come back? Or just put up a kick stage for the interplanetary injection burn? Like Europa clipper... can StarShip do it?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 29. März 2019
Massive delta velocity slam from highly elliptical Earth orbit using a fully retanked, but lightened up Starship with no heat shield or fins/legs. Best choice for the impatient. Ion engines are too slow.

We should send probes to outer solar system & get high res, true color images of these strange things. Maybe there’s an alien artifact out there …

@elonmusk could my older Model S get a "fake" Sentry Mode screen? There is a chance some thieves won't know which cars have HW2 and which don't... so even though I am aware there is no real Sentry Mode, it might deter some thieves from breaking in

Tax authorities tend to interpret things in their favor, but it sure sounds like you could be right! Will investigate.

Hey @elonmusk can you charge a tesla from plugging into another tesla? Can this be done easily, could be very cool if tesla owners can charge other teslas when low on batteries... $TSLA
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 28. März 2019
Rare use case, but it is possible. There are complications with this. Eary prototype Roadsters had this ability.

Anyone in the market for a new car and gets one without autopilot will be basically getting a stick shift of our time, basically a flip phone in 2019. @elonmusk

For someone who commutes 2+ hrs/day, autopilot in the Tesla 3 has been a game changer and hands down the best feature. It takes the edge off of driving, especially in gridlock. Less/no road rage = 😃👨👩👧👧Thx @elonmusk
