SpaceX Starship is so powerful it can destroy its own launchpad, SpaceX drains 2.4 million liters of water in one minute to prevent this. The water doesn't just cool things, it absorbs heat and acoustic energy by turning into steam through millions of tiny holes.

Starship may need around 40,000 tiny heat-shield tiles. Why doesn’t SpaceX simply mold the heat shield into much larger integrated sections,or even one continuous shell? It could save enormous installation time and reduce the risk of individual tiles falling off. #starship #spacex

At −40, the air is ridiculously cold and extremely dry. When you throw boiling water into it, the water doesn’t have time to politely cool down. Instead, it instantly breaks apart into tiny droplets and vapour. Those microscopic droplets lose heat almost immediately. Some of them freeze so fast they turn into tiny ice crystals (the “snow”), while the rest flash straight into water vapour (the “steam”). The colder the air the better the reaction. Do not attempt to do this unless it is STUPID COLD! The boiling water will just fall down on you. Ouch!

A pressure drop of just a few PSI is all it takes to turn a 400-foot rocket into a crushed steel can. So how does Starship survive while flying at nearly Mach 20 without helium tanks? The answer is one of the smartest engineering upgrades SpaceX has ever built—and almost nobody is talking about it. 🚀#SpaceX #Starship #Flight13 #RocketScience #Raptor #Mars #SpaceExploration

Iran doesn't need to fire a single missile at a US soldier. It just needs to destroy a water factory. The GCC has no natural fresh water. 60% comes from desalination plants. 80% of its food is imported. One drone. One plant. Millions without water. This war was never going to be fought the way you thought.

Can SpaceX Really Become More Valuable than rest of Earth? 😯 Elon Musk recently made one of his boldest predictions yet. Speaking about SpaceX, he said: "You don't seem to understand that SpaceX will be worth more than the rest of Earth if we accomplish our goals." That's an incredible statement. SpaceX is already one of the world's most valuable companies after its historic public listing. So what does he see that everyone else doesn't?🧐 Is SpaceX just another aerospace company, or is it trying to build the foundation of an entirely new economy—one that stretches from Earth into space?🚀 The first part of that vision is already becoming reality. SpaceX has launched thousands of Starlink satellites into orbit...If satellite internet continues to grow, many analysts believe Starlink alone could become one of the world's most valuable communications businesses. The second piece is Starship, the largest and most powerful rocket SpaceX has ever built... Elon wants humanity to become a multi-planetary species by building a self-sustaining city on Mars. SpaceX hopes Starship will one day transport people, equipment, and supplies to the Red Planet. But becoming more valuable than rest of Earth would depend on turning ambitious ideas like Starship and Mars into reality—something no company has ever done before. The question isn't just whether SpaceX can become the world's most valuable company. It's whether Elon Musk's biggest dream—making humanity a multi-planetary civilization—will actually become reality.🤔🤔

Elon Musk on how Starship turns mass to orbit from thousands of tons into millions SpaceX already delivers almost 90% of all Earth mass to orbit with Falcon 9 and Falcon Heavy Most of the remaining mass comes from China, while the rest of the world, including the rest of the US, makes up only about 5% to 7% But Starship takes this to a completely different level Today, SpaceX is around 2,500 tonnes per year to orbit With Starship, the goal is millions of tonnes per year to orbit And SpaceX can reach 1 million tonnes to orbit per year in about three years That is not a small upgrade That is many orders of magnitude more mass to orbit than what exists today Falcon made SpaceX the dominant launch provider Starship turns orbit into industrial infrastructure

SpaceX is closing in on one of the hardest problems in reusable spaceflight: a truly rapidly reusable orbital heat shield “No one has ever developed a fully reusable orbital heat shield” The Space Shuttle came closest, but its thermal protection system demanded massive inspection and refurbishment between flights Starship needs something far more advanced Tens of thousands of lightweight ceramic tiles have to survive launch, then come back through the atmosphere at orbital speed surrounded by plasma.....and still be ready to fly again with little to no repair SpaceX had to vertically integrate the entire technology, even building its own “tile bakery” to manufacture heat-shield tiles at scale And Ship 40 surviving reentry intact gave engineers the ultimate test article They spent days inspecting the flown heat shield, removing samples and learning exactly what survived and what still needs improvement SpaceX makes this truly rapid and reusable, it will be one of the greatest engineering breakthroughs in the entire Starship program

I am actually shocked by this latest segment from 60 Minutes about the Artemis program and Starship. The way it was all worded was shameful. "RUD is SpaceX speak for "our Starship rocket just blew up again" "And now you've seen some of the perils of relying on SpaceX"

One of the tricks mainstream media uses to make coal look scary and dirty is showing chimneys with “smoke” coming out of it. It’s not smoke at all! Just water vapour hitting cold air and turning into steam.

🚨BREAKING: SpaceX wants to send one million people to Mars by 2050 using thousands of Starship rockets. Meet Starship, the fully reusable rocket built to make that number real. The system is designed for up to 30 launches a day, with boosters that return to Earth minutes after liftoff and rapid refueling that turns one rocket into thousands of trips. Built to haul millions of tonnes of cargo and the people who follow it.

There’s nothing else like Starship No rocket ever built by humans can carry 250+ tons of payload, reach space, and return for reuse This isn’t normal engineering It feels more like alien technology And this is just the beginning SpaceX is about to turn science fiction into reality

🇺🇸 Falcon Heavy just got one of the most important launch contracts in NASA history. SpaceX will carry the Nancy Grace Roman Telescope into space from Pad 39A in Florida as early as September 2026. Roman is built to map dark energy, hunt exoplanets, and see the universe in infrared at a scale Hubble never could… so it can answer questions about what the universe is actually made of. And the world's most powerful operational rocket is the one taking it there. We're about to see the next chapter of space science begin. Source: SpaceX, Elon Musk, NASA Administrator Jared Isaacman
