We welcome with open clear skies and calm waters the return of SpaceX Dragon. The spacecraft expected to reenter earth's atmosphere five hours after detaching from the International Space Station around 8:23AM EST. Anticipated splashdown off the coast of California somewhere south southwest of...

"Tesla is a drama magnet." Ain't it the truth. So why does Elon do it? Some on easy street might wonder. Why does Musk, Chief Executive, of two competitive companies divvy up his time between SpaceX and Tesla. They're like siblings. The elder for this article's purpose being SpaceX. The favored...

Tesla reports Q4 2017 earnings and forecasts growth for 2018. This after managing a rough and tumble manufacturing year with Model 3. Tesla has worked out those S curve maneuvers alongside an eruption of lawsuits. Speculatively, a result of Q3 numbers not being what some investors anticipated...

Okay so I mentioned these early in holiday shopping season. Anticipate they won't last long so get multiples. Go!

This week's installment inspired by reddit discussion thread. Found it quite insightful as to logic behind why folks are either all in on the rails or skirting outer realms of SpaceX mission impossible cumulative probable possibilities. The company being in the news much lately when successful...

THANKS!

*Actual overall launch # per tonight's Zuma prelaunch broadcast is 18. Differs from total published on website cadence since 2006. Assuming 18 comprises successful launch minus failed attempts and/or scraps?

2006-2017 49 overall launches 44 Falcon 9 13 Dragon 2018- 52 Launch Customers No one can argue SpaceX had a phenomenal year. Capping an awesome launch record. Sits at 49 overall. Falcon 9 boosting 44 of those liftoffs. 13 of which were flown with Dragon. 2018 stands to be another record...

Realized I left out a very important step in the relationship progression example I used by way of intro post before last. When he lets you drive it. Hot ticket item. Tesla stocks rise as markets recognize PepsiCo in semi preorder driver seat. They've joined the queue with their 100 truck buy...

2017 promises to end for Tesla coming down on positive side of that production slope for Model 3. Have you noticed the periodic buzz reports of inventory being spotted here and there? Recently though it's all about the semi. Preorders are rolling in and this is looking like a repeat of Model 3's...

To Where'ere Our Hearts Shall Thrust Us When a man finds the vehicle. You know she's the apple of his eye. If he lets you have a peep at it? You're cool. If he permits getting up close to touch and tinker? He respects your opinion. Find yourself in the passenger seat along for a ride...

Got any leftovers? No worries. Make soup. Turkey hash is a favorite this time of year. Then again any dish that has rice as one of its ingredients makes my list. Home's where the heart is. No matter where we choose to roam off grid. Or gather for comforts. Sharing stories with families and...

Where did 2017 go? A lot has transpired and inspired. While other matters rendered us mute with frustration. It's all good. As they say what doesn't keel us over. Tesla is all lit up with awesome. Even amidst recent challenges seasoned with some unsavory news. Thursday's semi event was done up...

From my reddit thread. Excellent points. Especially about sleeper cab. Overnight charging is ideal scenario for most Tesla owners but for long haul truckers makes perfect sense. They are required, by law, to rest (sleep) after x accumulated hours of straight driving. *** /u/Haysdb • reply There...

*Edited version. Because sometimes you need longer than 10 minutes for tweaking.* Okay so it was a WOW factor. Nothing new there. Consistent with Tesla brand semi tickles ALL my gadgetaholic wanna tinker and touch it tendencies. Normal since personal Tesla discovery moment. I would add looks...

Okay so it was a WOW factor. Nothing new there. Consistent with Tesla brand semi tickles ALL my gadgetaholic wanna tinker and touch it tendencies. Normal since personal Tesla discovery moment. I would add looks good enough to taste but that might be a bit much for some minds to wrap around...

It was very disheartening to me learning SpaceX represented by Elon Musk has entered into contractual agreements with Turkey to launch satellites and is in apparent car business talks. Which means Tesla's brand may become a part of Turkish culture. A blemish on Turkey's history is the Armenian...

Precisely why I see this as a not so great long term option. Sure ideological differences shouldn't exclude joint business participation BUT where will SpaceX, Tesla & affiliates draw the line? What will or won't they stand for? Here in the U.S. and abroad.

Surprised there's not more chatter on here about this. Have to say, long term, I don't like it. Although it has lucrative appeal. Elon Musk says he's not in it for profit. Then why is Turkey necessary in expanding internationally? How does a country whose politics (current and historical) are a...

Hats. To write well can be existential. Scribes, if so gifted, possess an ability to visit other physical and or material worlds. Peruse varying mindsets. Often requiring, in a sense, becoming part of these persons or things for best comprehension. Interactively speaking. Learning tool? Sounds...

Oh...and this happens soon along Northeast Corridor. Kind of thought a first face-to-face Q&A session would be either SpaceX or Tesla. Who knew next cap head cover would be a Boring...

If you're a happy and you know it Tesla car owner you're probably shaking your head over this week's heightened media stories about the electric car company. Whereas investors are either scouting some legal office or steady trying to wrap their minds and money around Tesla's core values. Namely...

Couple of follow up clips speaking to reducing vehicular fatal crashes with more electric cars on the roadways. Particularly Tesla Models of course!

Damaged but not destroyed beyond repair we hope.

More stats.

"The drive by media." Over past few years don't permit much of what I hear or read to make it within even filtering range of my mental processes. Often it's a regurgitating experience. We exist in times that news has become a question mark? A thing to be bought sold refurbished repackaged by its...

You might peep Uranus! It's my favorite.

As y'all know Elon held an AMA on reddit for SpaceX followers yesterday. It went well. Tesla on reddit is hoping for a Q&A out there. Super sensitive deets surrounding the company but definitely doable. I quoted in comment to reddit inquiry, Elon Musk in response to one of Saturday's questions...

Everyday's a holiday if you love what you do. Like my Grandma once said to me though, "Wait til the love wears off." Reality checked. Tesla is deep in production hell of much anticipated Model 3. Upwards of 450,000 anxiously patient customers are in the order queue. Meanwhile the pressure...

Appreciate you pointing that out.

Can't stop. Won't stop. https://www.instagram.com/p/BaInXGBg9G7/

Tonight's Stage One configuration was a 2nd mission. First being SRS-10 flown to resupply the ISS. EchoStar 105/SES-11 lifts off from Launch Complex 39A at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center, Florida. This is SpaceX's 2nd launch for Echostar and 4th for SES. Stage one finishes strong with Falcon 9's...

This Week Tesla & Companies

Don't know about you but I am still riding SpaceX's Mars Mission and More. Digiverse has been lit with opinions discussions and afterglow thoughts. Quantum STEM stuff. An OTD moment brought to us by NASA Astronaut Mark T. Vande Hei @Astro_Sabot who tweeted out, "Happy Anniversary @Spacex Dragon...

Wild ride. Pretty cool phrase. Nails the week Tesla and collaborative companies have had. Let's recap, shall we? Michigan still has a car industry. It's going electric. Tesla's tool and die facility, formerly Riviera Tool and Die Co., at 5460 Executive Parkway SE was among buildings sold for...

In a widely anticipated talk webcasted LIVE, SpaceX Founder/CEO, Elon Musk gives an update on the company's Earth to Mars mission. The 68th International Astronautical Congress (IAC2017) was held last week, September 25-29 in Adelaide, Australia. Firing up the boosters early on, Australia...

Speechless. Okay maybe I can get this out while my brain is still processing peeping at space on the way to Canada or Europe from Somewhere, USA or anywhere on Earth as like a practice run because I'm probably going to need that confidence booster before the long haul real deal voyage to sow...

Grrr...hate waiting. I'll be cool. For now:cool:

I missed first day of a training session yesterday thinking today was Day 1. Guess I'm still in a West Coast time zone state of mind.

I'm cool with prescreen if there's protocol to submit yet. I'm EST so presentation's 12:30AM. I've already presented ?'s to one other presenter whose lecture wasn't webcasting.

UPDATE We the people... via Consumer Report. Read it HERE Consumer Report. More to love. End of clip;)

Q&A following and is it open to web attendees? I've got a shortlist of 3 I'd love to field presenter. We know Elon loves answering ?'s as long as the water holds out. Lol ish.

There's soon to be a vote on retaining Pai as FCC Chairman. We need this NOT to happen. Why are issues surrounding Net Neutrality important for Tesla and its partner companies? Technology. Technology. Technology. Translation, software coding none of it is useful without the internet. Which...

UPDATE SpaceX satellite internet company plan meets challenge. Way I see it this is all part of the #NetNeutrality argument. Taking action HERE helps in overcoming this hurdle.

Circumspect. Cool word. Certainly a term Tesla seems to be employing when asked to comment on developing it's own Autopilot chip in partnership with AMD. From what I can sketch out, and there are few confirmed details, the electric car manufacturer wants to bring the technology (aka artificial...

In order to reap the full benefits of sustainability we must sow seed of responsibility. None can dismiss the devastation recent major storms have left behind in Texas Florida Puerto Rico and other Carribbean isles along their path. Less covered by mainstream media was the 7.1 magnitude...

A clergyman said of me years ago, "You're quite accomplished." I had submitted career credentials in offering my experience to the organization's administrative offices. I believed they were doing a good work. Wanted to assist in furthering a sincere rightful cause. Which turned out to be on a...

So I send my pre MBA STEM credits ladened resume to SpaceX for a very entry level numbers related role. As sort of an experiment. Truth be told tenacious imaginative and persistent I may be. Still believe in Universal law. To receive courtesy of a lift up you should show ability to meet your...
