How different will Lunar Starship be from a standard atmospheric Starship? Like those thrusters on top seem like a pretty big shift from a standard Starship... are they still methalox? Related to SuperDraco in any way?

Forward thrusters are to stabilize ship when landing in high winds. If goal is max payload to moon per ship, no heatshield or flaps or big gas thruster packs are needed. No need to bring early ships back. They can serve as part of moon base alpha.

Outcome-based contracting with multiple competitors is vastly better than cost-plus (especially if sole-sourced), as the former rewards results & latter rewards waste. Outcome contracting should be applied broadly within government. The difference in results will be incredible.

Autopilot prime directive is: don’t crash. What seems fast to humans is slow to a computer. 360 degree low light vision & sonar, plus forward radar enable to be superhuman. Upcoming software upgrades will increasingly show the potential.

@Tesla @elonmusk Had a great time camping in the #Model3. Just one bit of feedback: it'd be nice if the screen turned off after a given amount of time instead of playing the campground animation all night. #ilovethiscar

I think based on renders it makes sense to stack SH/SS on the pad. No way they’re rolling out a 120m tall rocket vertically to the pad on that road 😬
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 7. Juni 2020
Yeah. Even stacking on the pad will be quite an adventure!

It’s gotta be the most inside out rocket factory ever. Start making rockets. Then make the factory. It’ll be a paradigm shift once it’s all optimized and figured out!
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 7. Juni 2020
Creating the production system is >1000% harder than building one rocket. This is the truly hard thing.

Are you thinking Boca, 39A, or an ocean platform for the first Super Heavy launches?

Pursuing all three. Hard to say right now.

Well that's for Starship which is the second stage. Super Heavy is the first stage, and its mostly a propellant tank

3600 tons of propellant, almost 80% of which is densified liquid oxygen
