@elonmusk: Can you give me some basic clues? What diameter of tube so I can start designing stations & throughways? twitpic.com/cw4pqb
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 15, 2013
your guess is the closest I've seen anyone guess so far. Pod diameter probably around 2m

@elonmusk Please consider patenting Hyperloop so it isn't hijacked by parties less ethical than you.
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 15, 2013
I really hate patents unless critical to company survival. Will publish Hyperloop as open source.

@elonmusk How much % extra fuel would you need to make a landing like grasshopper? Is the entire braking procedure by firing trusters?
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 15, 2013
Yes, it is a purely propulsive landing, but using the huge landing gear A frames as air brakes. Landing prop < 5% of vehicle mass

@elonmusk @SpaceX Every time I see astronauts in training, and they're always wearing a Soyuz suit, it makes me a little bit grumpy.

New spacesuit almost done. Hoping to unveil by end of year.

@lougil_ace Taking action. Will be a 7 day grace period for $2500 ext warranty. Neg margin at that price, so must unfortunately raise.

@elonmusk recirculation and venting windows does help air flow a little, but makes overall car hotter (predictably) - and still not enough
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jun 25, 2013
Turning recirc off, windows closed and the right film on rear glass usually works. Am asking HVAC engineering to investigate.

@arthurblake Turn off AC recirc, so that cool air flows out thru rear vents & get IR coating on rear glass.

@elonmusk · Jun 25, 2013
@arthurblake Tesla service can do coating or can be done by any auto glass coating company. My car is done on side & rear
