For everyone looking to compare the Tesla and Ford Model T ramp.
Pulling data from Tesla website and Wikipedia for Ford.

Cars today are far more complex than Model T, with a global supply chain that is vulnerable to force majeure risk.
Like Model T, supply chain for battery EVs simply doesn’t exist at massive scale, so must be built in parallel.
Ideas are easy, production is hard.

did @elonmusk just say nickel based cells for ships and aircraft!!! Electric boats and planes comin!!! 🤯 $TSLA
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 26, 2021
Ships are probably fine with iron cells, but aircraft need very high energy density for good range.
I’m not saying Tesla will do aircraft – we have our hands full with cars & solar/battery power generation – just that max energy density is needed for aircraft.

As of right now The National Team, led by Blue Origin has received more HLS development funds than the current winner, SpaceX.
$579 million for National Team
$135 million for SpaceX.
Further funding for the winner is awaiting results of protest.

A lot of speculation on how big this will be, but let me just say one thing. No amount of bigness will satisfy the dreams of Elon. This will be a small step towards the next largest bay. 😉
Elon Musk@elonmusk· Jul 25, 2021@NASASpaceflight Construction starts soon on a much larger high bay just north of current high bay

Only a little taller, but much bigger base & two gantry cranes that run full span

Dear @elonmusk, is there any chance of us getting Li-ion 12V batteries when replacing the lead-acid batteries in our current @Tesla Model 3s and Model Ys? Asking for about 1,000,000 friends.
Elon Musk
@elonmusk · Jul 26, 2021
We will try. Preferable for Tesla too, as they last so long. Unlike other makers of cars, our goal is *not* to profit from service. Best service is not needing service in the first place.

Computers are absurdly more accurate than humans.
How long would it take for a human to render even one frame of a modern video game at low res? The computer will do high res at 120 frames per second. Not a contest.

The strange numbers that birthed modern Algebra. The 19th-century discovery of numbers called “quaternions” gave mathematicians a way to describe rotations in space, forever changing physics and math [read more: buff.ly/2M51sgy]

The building is ~7 stores tall, so each “floor” is double size. Hard to appreciate unless you’re close.
