The Model 3 production ramp was sheer agony for two years, but that was do or die for Tesla. No US car company has reached high volume production with sustained free cash flow in ~100 years. Hundreds of car startups all died or were absorbed for peanuts by big three.

Even GM & Chrysler went bankrupt in 2009. Ford and Tesla are the only US car companies that have avoided bankruptcy.

How do you view this risk as difficult but better than m3 ramp? I don’t want to see you go through that kind of pain again.

“Large scale manufacturing, especially of new technology, is somewhere between 1,000% and 10,000% harder than the prototype. I would really regard, at this point, prototypes as a trivial joke," — @elonmusk

Bringing a new product to volume production is 1% inspiration & 99% perspiration. You do still need that critical seed of inspiration, but it’s fun & takes ~100 people. Production takes >10,000 people & hurts like hell until the gigantic cybernetic collective runs smoothly.

Interesting to see Momentus and Rocket Lab take unique approaches to meet small satellite demand. Momentus with "last mile" orbit delivery. Rocket Lab with small rockets.

Marginal cost of Starship mass to orbit should be well under $100/kg. Fully burdened cost depends on flight rate.

Prototypes are a piece of cake, but high volume production of a new technology is extremely hard. Takes much longer than people think to climb the production S-curve. I can’t emphasize enough that production is by *far* the hard part.

Berlin will use 4680 cell with structural battery pack & front & rear single piece castings. Also, a new paint system. Lot of new technology will happen in Berlin, which means significant production risk. Fremont & Shanghai will transition in ~2 years when new tech is proven.

true, Tesla moves your heart. hey, what kind of cells are you planning to move our hearts with in Berlin? CATL LFP? 2170 cells... 4680? I know you said you’re making cells in berlin

It's funny. When you watch Daimler & Tesla investor presentations, you can really see the difference between the two companies Daimler's CEO talks about the company like it's a spreadsheet But @elonmusk and Drew talk about engineering and products I know which I'm investing in

What bar strength did it reach? 🚀
Elon Musk
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · 7 окт. 2020 г.
7 bar absolute, which is fine for flight. This was a proof test, rather than a burst test. We’ll hopefully fix the leak today & retest.

Cryo pressure test succeeded, but a small leak opened up near the engine mounts, possibly due to differential shrinking

Stunning launch this morning by @SpaceX! Starlink-12 (L 13) launched on its 5th attempt. B1058 flew for its 3rd time and successfully landed. Congrats on your successful mission! This is a 30 second exposure using a 10 stop ND filter. #Starlink #RocketLaunch

Once these satellites reach their target position, we will be able to roll out a fairly wide public beta in northern US & hopefully southern Canada. Other countries to follow as soon as we receive regulatory approval.

We’re not seeing notable differences yet. I think the boosters could probably do 100+ reflights. Some of the (small) composite helium tanks would need to be replaced. Maybe turbopump hot sections.

There's been a significant reduction in the turnaround time of Falcon 9, which is a pretty significant implication for re-use. I know it's still a long way off, but could we see that 24hr turnaround time of Falcon 9 soon?

Roughly a week or two turnaround is all that’s needed to meet max launch demand. Starship Super Heavy is designed for reflight in less than an hour.
