Drop the fiction. Just science.

@elonmusk Science is enough. All things are possible, therefore "science fiction" is really just a hypothesis.

Dope. 🔥

Beautiful.😍 Science fiction is closely linked to technology. Rosalind Williams (Massachusetts Institute of Technology), once noted in an interview with National Geographic that the "Nautilus" is not very different from modern submarines, such as the "Alvin" bathyscaphe.😏

@elonmusk Cool 😎

💯 can you imagine it…let’s build it ✨🤍

So true, and these videos are absolute masterpieces 🤌

@elonmusk 🔥

Speaking of science. Can you relate this to a courtroom of Ai to Ui...Let's call it.

Drop the fiction. There's no free speech on X.

🥹🤍🚀🚀🚀🚀

The science fiction of yesterday is the reality of today and history tomorrow.

@elonmusk But what if this 'fiction' is closer to the truth ? @elonmusk - if the telemetry to verify this were possible, would you look?

A magnetic rail launch, like the new aircraft carrier systems, Great way to start a flight

@elonmusk Can we ride it?!

@elonmusk Science has always been here, written into the fabric of the universe….waiting for curious minds to uncover it!!! 🫶 SpaceX shows us that reality itself is extraordinary when we dare to explore it.❤️🚀✨

Reminds me of Tron

It is ironic that Elon Musk goes back to his first hardware build: electromagnetism, but this time to accelerate.

Magic happens—that’s when science fiction becomes a reality. Starship is magic! 😍 🚀✨

Please tell me this video isn't AI made because I really fucking liked it.

@elonmusk Not just fiction. How far an idea can go! Solution for going and returning essential and non essential loads on the Moon, Mars, etc.. Getting there, we’ll, just another idea started on paper first. More than an idea and beyond fiction. A solution.

Reality always outlasts the stories we invent to avoid it.

The most exciting part is that many things once called science fiction are now engineering projects.

@elonmusk This is masterpiece… that’s really nice

Just need to believe in Christ as our Savior, God created the universe. Believe it in Child-like faith. Everything that exists has a designer and creator. THAT is the true basis of everything that exists. A Devine Creator.

Shooting that helium 3 back to the fusion generators on earth. Nice

Sound (and voice) literally shaping perception and emotion in real time 🔥

@elonmusk We've got it wrong. We are not in charge here. It is the off Planet races that will make contact shortly that will bring a greater understanding of everything including consciousness. We are babies. We are unevolved. Consciousness expands because it's the nature of evolution

Lunar rail footage strips fiction to raw engineering reality. Science-first infrastructure compounds fastest. What constraint on Earth does this approach solve next?

”Wisdom is the mother of all good things; the love of her gives us the word 'philosophy' from the Greek. Of all the gifts which the immortal gods have bestowed on human life none is richer or more abundant or more desirable. In addition to everything else, she alone taught us this most difficult lesson, namely to know ourselves— precept of such power and significance that it was ascribed, not to any mortal, but to the god of Delphi. The person who knows himself will first of all realize that he possesses something divine, and he will compare his own inner nature to a kind of holy image placed within a temple. His thoughts and actions will always be worthy of that priceless gift of the gods; and when he inspects and tests himself thoroughly he will see how well he has been equipped by nature on entering life, and what implements he has for acquiring and obtaining wisdom. At the beginning he will have conceived in his mind and spirit dim perceptions, so to speak, of everything. When these have been illuminated with the guidance of wisdom, he now realizes that he has the makings of a good man, and for that very reason a happy one. Once the mind, on perceiving and recognizing the virtues, has ceased to serve and gratify the body, and has expunged pleasure like a kind of discreditable stain; and once it has put behind it all fear of pain and death, and entered a loving fellowship with its own kind, regarding as its own kind all who are akin to it by nature; and once it has begun to worship the gods in a pure form of religion, and has sharpened the edge of the moral judgement, like that of the eyes, so that it can choose the good and reject its opposite (a virtue which is called prudence from pro-vision)—what can be described or conceived as more blessed than such a mind? And when that same mind examines the heavens, the earth, the sea, and the nature of all things, and perceives where those things have come from and to where they will return, when and how they are due to die, what part of them is mortal and perishable, and what is divine and everlasting; and when it almost apprehends the very god who governs and rules them, and realizes that it itself is not a resident in some particular locality surrounded by man-made walls, but a citizen of the whole world as though it were a single city; then, in the majesty of these surroundings, in this contemplation and comprehension of nature, great God! how well it will know itself, as the Pythian Apollo commanded, how it will disdain, despise, and count as nothing those things that are commonly deemed so precious! Moreover, it will surround all these things with a kind of stockade consisting of verbal reasoning, expertise in judging what is true and false, and the art, as it were, of understanding the logical consequences of everything and what objections it encounters. And when it realizes that it has been born to join a fellowship of citizens, it will decide to use, not just that subtle method of arguing, but also a more expansive and continuous style of speech. With such an instrument it will rule nations, reinforce laws, castigate the wicked, protect the good, praise eminent men, issue instructions for security and prestige in language which will persuade fellow-citizens; it will be able to inspire them to honourable actions and restrain them from disgrace; to console the afflicted, and to hand on the deeds and counsels of brave and wise men, along with the infamy of the wicked, in words that will last for ever. Those are the powers, so manifold and so momentous, that can be discerned in a human being by those who wish to know themselves. And the parent and nurse of those powers is wisdom.”

@elonmusk Less storytelling, more peer review. 😎
