🤯 Caught my first @Tesla @Cybertruck in Cluj-Napoca, Romania today and nearly faceplanted trying to snap these pics! Such a clean and elegant design! What a cool and beautiful car! Fun fact: It's a Foundation Series too! Bonus: spot the other Model Y in the background. 🤯

Humans for Scale

Starship 40 / Launch Pad 2 / Starbase, Texas - October 7, 2026

Starship 40 spotted on heavy load carrier ship Forte approaching port this morning. 10/7/26

The spacecraft is executing a series of departure burns to move away from the @Space_Station. Dragon will reenter the Earth's atmosphere and splash down in ~27.5 hours off the coast of California

Headed home! Crew-12 has undocked from the @Space_Station in their Dragon spacecraft. They'll splash down in the Pacific Ocean tomorrow, Oct. 8 — tune in here for live coverage starting at 10:20am ET (1420 UTC).

Anduril is investing $3.7B into Arsenal-2. The next great American Shipyard.

📍Gale Crater, Aug. 11, 2026, 8:30 a.m. local Mars time. The Curiosity rover captures the Sun rising on crags known as yardangs, a scene that scientists have long been waiting to see up close. 1/2

Constant communication is what makes autonomy like this safe. Early contact lets us take maneuvering responsibility, publish ephemeris faster than ground radar can catalog the object, and deorbit and keep commanding through demise if needed We treat early communications as a requirement, not a nice-to-have

Ship40 is almost home

Time to bring them home 🌎 After nearly eight months aboard the @Space_Station, the four members of Crew-12 will soon head back to Earth. We’re targeting no earlier than 8:05am EDT (1205 UTC), on Wednesday, Oct. 7, for the undocking of the @SpaceX Dragon spacecraft. Details: go.nasa.gov/4s8iyjv

Thank you to our @NASA team and everyone at @PacificAirshow who made it possible. Hopefully a few kids went home thinking about their own future in aviation and space. We’re going to need them.

Congratulations to the @NASA workforce and our partner @SpaceX on another successful crewed launch to the International Space Station. Crew-13 is now aboard the station, Crew-12 will be home soon, and 2026 is far from over. Still ahead: more science missions, more flyovers, the MAX POWER exposition, cargo resupply, a possible Starliner-1 demonstration mission to the ISS, Artemis III rollout and tanking tests, and the first Moon Base launch before the year ends. We will never stop going. 🇺🇸

Hot-staging on Starship Flight 14

For those not aware, NASA certified the Cybertruck as an Astronaut Emergency Egress Vehicle, allowing SpaceX to replace their aging MRAPs. If something goes wrong on the pad, the crew needs to get as far away as possible, as quickly as possible, and Cybertruck provides that speed and protection. A NASA spokesperson said that both the agency and SpaceX "assessed the capability of the vehicle for all situations that would be encountered in an emergency and found that the Cybertruck met NASA’s requirements."

What an extraordinary week for SpaceX! We launched our quiver of space vehicles: Starship, Dragon, Falcon 9, and Falcon Heavy. We delivered operational next-gen V3 Starlink satellites to orbit for the first time, a plethora of customer payloads, and critical national security payloads that will defend our country. Most importantly, side by side with the incomparable @NASA, we safely flew Crew-13 to the International Space Station. This week is a powerful reminder of what rocket reusability unlocks and what the SpaceX team can accomplish when we stay relentlessly focused and consistently execute at the highest level. Congrats to the entire @SpaceX team and our customers for making the future something to be excited about every single day.
