If you were born in the 80s and raised in the 90s and made it to 2022.. you have lived in 4 different decades, 2 different centuries, 2 different millenniums and you are not even 40 yet (or early 40s).

True. I have a CO2 monitor on my desk. It beeps whenever ppm>1000.

GERMAN NUCLEAR OPERATOR: WE CAN KEEP RUNNING, ONLY NEED "OK"
News clip has emerged showing that Chancellor Scholz and Economy Minister Habeck have been falsely claiming that nuclear plants cannot operate because of staffing and lack of fuel.
They only need political permission.

Obviously ppl should carry a CO2 monitor at all times :) Outside air is ~400ppm, stuffy room ~1000+. CO2 ppm is proxy for how much other people's air you're breathing (~covid risk). Thinking gets hazier at 1000+. Meeting rooms and bedrooms can climb much higher than you'd expect.

About twice as much useful mass to orbit as rest of Earth combined

There’s definitely rockets that have had over a 1.5 : 1 TWR. It’s extra advantageous for Starship because it minimizes fuel usage, which for a fully reusable rocket, is one of the biggest expenses!
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 18, 2022
More accurate word is “propellant”, rather than “fuel”. Starship is ~78% liquid oxygen, ~22% fuel.
Propellant cost is of primary importance for a fully reusable rocket, so reusable rockets want high thrust, as thrust below T/W of 1 is irrelevant.

The magnitude of difference between 1 million and 1 billion is not that intuitive and can be illustrated with this example of the time scale:
- A million seconds is 12 days.
- A billion seconds is 31 years.
- A trillion seconds is 31,688 years

@TJ_Cooney · Jul 18, 2022
it certainly is. should we anticipate better upload and download speeds with the increasing volume of starlink satellites? or would we see that with v2 when it comes online?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 18, 2022
Starlink bandwidth varies a lot, depending on user terminal density & time of day. That’s why the long wait in some areas.
Throughput is roughly linear with total V1 satellites in operation. V2 satellites are at least 5 times better (conservative estimate) than V1.

After 2 yrs on the waitlist our family farm finally has Starlink! (Gracefully parked in the middle of a soybean field) Check out the results, night and day compared to the other provider. 1300 ping vs 50?!? .97mbps vs 38.9mbps?! This is life changing tech! Thank you @spacex!
