@elonmusk Any idea when "party and camping mode" is coming to S/3/X, where we can run the 12v outlet for 48hours+?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Feb 14, 2019
Probably a month or two. Sentry mode became top priority, so pushed that out a bit.

Will there still be these header tanks inside starship?

Elon Musk

Yeah, but simpler. Needed for landing burn or engines will suck in a bubble.

Starship & Super Heavy will press tanks autogenously even in version 1. Very important, as helium costs more than oxygen on Falcon, even though liquid oxygen is 2/3 vehicle mass & helium weighs basically nothing.

To me personally? I like how @elonmusk uses Twitter. He’s focused on solving existential problems and sharing his thinking openly. I respect that a lot, and all the ups and downs that come with it #karajack

I wonder what the trade offs are for piggy backing other instruments on low orbit comm sat constellations. You aren’t going to get a Keyhole aperture, but being able to have 24/7 coverage of anywhere seems valuable. @elonmusk

Stainless steel is CHEAP! Welding it is easy!
Super Heavy & Starship will eventually use gaseous methane & oxygen to pressurize the tanks so no helium is needed. They'll use the same gasses for the maneuvering thrusters as well, so no nitrogen or hydrazine will be needed either.

Will the Moon be Starships first mission or will you directly send it to Mars with supplies for future colonies?

What are the estimated costs for tickets to Moon/Mars accounting for reusability?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Feb 11, 2019
Very dependent on volume, but I’m confident moving to Mars (return ticket is free) will one day cost less than $500k & maybe even below $100k. Low enough that most people in advanced economies could sell their home on Earth & move to Mars if they want.
