Yes, but you get to your destination so quickly & directly that it doesn’t matter

Nah that’s getting entrained in the low pressure wake behind the landing leg.

Exactly. Still, pretty wild that the engine plume can climb up the side of a rocket going hypersonic speed!

No doubt getting all of the municipalities to agree and approve it would be more difficult than the actual digging...
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 24, 2019
Paperwork & hundreds of approving authorities is by far the hardest part

Can we get some around the Bay Area, where one day "The Big One" will arrive? My Model 3 in a Boring tunnel would be quicker than BART! Triangle from SF to East Bay to San Jose, maybe?

That would great!

Tunnels are also cool because of the BORING traffic you can avoid right?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · May 24, 2019
Yes. No one will forced to take the tunnel. It’s optional!

How are the Starlink sats doing? Are they now boosting themselves up to their operational orbit?

Ironically, same publications will attack me for compensation tied to Tesla tripling in value and imply Tesla is worthless. They can’t *both* be true!

Gary the 🐌 still crushes us! Wouldn’t be fair. But TBC might give him a run for his money next year.

@elonmusk · May 24, 2019
Fundamental advantage of layers of tunnels is you can have as many lanes as you want going in any direction. Will feel like folding space from one part of a city to another.

Why abandon the original idea of sleds? This seems like extra wear in long term on vehicle.

For those of you who were confused how @SpaceX deployed their #starlink satellites, I did this on air after the launch in @KerbalSpaceP Notice, the booster doesn’t roll so much as pitches end over end. Congrats on the launch SpaceX and @elonmusk !! 🚀🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰🛰

New S & X are much improved. Worth trying out. You’re on version 2, current S/X is version 4.
YouCanPickYourNose@1drumlover· May 24, 2019@elonmusk I just want to thank you and all who work so hard at @Tesla and @SpaceX for all that you do. My values guide my investments and Tesla will always be that mix. BTW, my loaded 2015 P85D simply put, is fucking badass! I named it DISRUPTOR!!!! Much Peace!
