We need heat shields to protect us, since we use the air to slow us down as we return to Earth. From orbital speed, it gets to 1650°C / 3000°F. From the Moon: 2750°C / 5000°F. For yesterday's Starship suborbital test flight, peak was 1450°C / 2600°F. Great to see the @SpaceX progress over the last 3 flights. Making them truly reusable is complex and necessary for permanent, cheap space access. image compilation: @niccruzpatane

This photo from Flight 12 goes soooo hard!!!!!

US fertility rates just hit another record low In 2025, the US general fertility rate fell to 53.1 - the lowest level ever recorded Japan, South Korea, and Germany have already been shrinking for years. Japan has been shrinking for years, South Korea’s population has already started to decline, and Germany would be shrinking without immigration Now the UK joins them - deaths will outnumber births every single year starting in 2026 No economy grows without people No pension system survives without young workers No culture persists without families having children This is the slowest civilizational crisis in human history

.@NASAAdmin: "The next step is go out further, it's to return to the moon. It's to pick up where Apollo 17 left off... President Trump said we are going back to stay, to build a moon base. That’s going to be a massive American outpost." 🚀🌕

We have a left-wing violence problem in America. After 3x attempts on Trump, Charlie, Kavanaugh, Scalise and more… I wake up everyday with a knot in my stomach about what will happen next.

“World War Eleven” Yes, that was deadly

Republican voters make up 40% of New England. Democrats control the district lines. Result: 🔴 — 0 🔵 — 27

Welcome home Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy! 🫶 The Artemis II astronauts have splashed down at 8:07pm ET (0007 UTC April 11), bringing their historic 10-day mission around the Moon to an end.

De toekomst van mobiliteit is aangebroken FSD Supervised has been approved in the Netherlands 🇳🇱 & will begin rolling out in the country shortly!  Trained on billions of kilometers of real-world driving data, it can drive you almost anywhere under your supervision – from residential roads to city streets & highways No other vehicle can do this.  We're excited to bring FSD Supervised to more European countries soon

The US should just follow what you did in El Salvador: 1. Impeach all corrupt judges 2. Lock up the criminals 3. Investigate politicians.

Grok 4.20 Non-Hallucination rate improved to even higher than previous highest Just days ago, it hit a record-breaking 78% Non-Hallucination Rate - already #1 in the world, smoking Claude Opus 4.6 (max), Gemini 3.1, GPT-5.4 (xhigh), and every other major model Now, it just pushed that number even higher to 83% While every other AI confidently makes up stuff and fabricate answers it doesn't know - Grok simply says "I don't know"

Both societies exist simultaneously. really incredible to think about

Artemis II has reached its maximum distance from Earth. On the far side of the Moon, 252,756 miles away, Reid, Victor, Christina, and Jeremy have now traveled farther from Earth than any humans in history and now begin their journey home. Before they left, they said they hoped this mission would be forgotten, but it will be remembered as the moment people started to believe that America can once again do the near-impossible and change the world. Congratulations to this incredible crew and the entire NASA team, our international and commercial partners, but this mission isn’t over until they’re under safe parachutes, splashing down into the Pacific.

Tesla will continue to improve. It will eventually hit the point where it will save 99% of the lives that could have been lost in an accident. We are going to live in a better future with fewer fatalities. Insurance premiums will also come down significantly.

Many people still don’t know this 𝕏 quietly replaced Google Translate with Grok… and it’s been an absolute game-changer Previously 𝕏 used to have Google Translate, which was kinda okay-ish Grok translation just broke the walls between Japanese and Western users Timelines went from local to GLOBAL overnight Japanese fire, anime takes, niche culture.....now the whole West actually gets it (and vice versa) People are honestly loving it. The timelines have never been this fun and interesting!

The Left never got over Elon buying X. That wasn’t supposed to happen. The Left’s ideas are so bad and damaging they need total control of information. When Elon bought X they lost that control. People started seeing truth. This is catastrophic for the Left. Simple.
