#23I'm very excited about this test! A few observations that will hopefully get you excited: 1. Starship is, by far, the most powerful rocket ever launched. At T-0 its engines thrust with over 7,000 metric tons of force--twice the Saturn V. Imagine bolting together two Saturn Vs side-by-side and launching them--that's how much power will be in tomorrow's launch. 2. Starship is on the critical path for the next US crewed…
Could proving out this technology make SpaceX the most valuable company on Earth, for a while? They invested early in “cheap” tech for rockets, which seems to be paying dividends in spades. One company owns most of the active satellites in orbit.

You can watch the Twitter stream using the embedded card on the SpaceX website[0]. Just click the Watch button and it will open the player, no account required.

SpaceX stopped streaking on YouTube and now only stream on Twitter. Twitter is not a good video streaming platform. I prefer watching Everyday Astronaut's stream: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixZpBOxMopc

Why would it? What SpaceX does affects very few people on the planet, compared to almost any company in the Fortune 500. Valuation of a private company is also hard to determine.
Even with owning most of the active satellites in orbit they only serve 2.6 million customers with Starlink. Those satellites are also designed to turn into trash in 5 years.

#30Was just watching YouTube stream on “SpaceX” channel and right at launch a QR code cryptocurrency scam replaced the SpaceX feed. Not sure who fucked up but I’m guessing the marketing folks at SpaceX lost control of their YouTube creds.
