3.3 million miles
Right now it works out to roughly 60K miles a day, about 430K a week. That's around 14% week over week.

Sorry about that, that is an Apple bug. Try this:
More fun with NetP and Starlink.
NetP now tracks all the Starlink satellites and determines the ones your device is actively connected to.
Find NetP for iPhone or Android at netp-app.com/.
If you have Starlink, you will see active tracking of the satellites overhead and the ones you are actively connected to. Statistics accumulate over time. There is an overhead and orbits view.
If you don't have Starlink, the app will still show the satellites overhead and their orbits based on GPS.
In addition you can look at the entire Starlink constellation (all the potential satellites that are active and inactive). This list is dynamically updated as satellites are launched and become part of the network.
Give it a try. Fun.
2+2 this week.
Yea @CernBasher and I were blown away by Roadster.
A lot is happening in Texas these days with Tesla and SpaceX.
Fasten your 5-point seatbelt. It's quite a ride from here.
Two Guys, Two Weeks Video
Here is a summary of the topics @pbeisel and I talk about in the video:
The Mind-Blowing Tesla Roadster Demo: Phil and I share our sheer disbelief at the new Roadster demonstration, where the car literally held itself upside down and launched vertically. We both agree that this completely ends the traditional supercar race and redefines what is possible.
Active Safety and SpaceX Cross-Pollination: We break down why the Roadster is more than just a fast car. By combining SpaceX cold-gas thrusters and suction fans with Tesla's AI, the car gains unprecedented active safety features. The FSD computer can control the car's physics far faster than humanly possible, keeping you safe on rain, ice, or snow.
Deep Dive into the Roadster's Hardware & Specs: We look closely at some specific engineering details, including the hidden charge port, structural wheel spokes, the carbon-overwrapped pressure vessel (COPV), and intense top-and-bottom battery cooling. We also marvel at how Tesla is using Optimus robot leg actuators to control the vehicle's rear spoiler and throttle valves.
F1 Track Simulations and Massive G-Forces: We look at the staggering 1,341 horsepower generated by the new dual-motor drive unit. We also review a recent track simulation showing that with just a fraction of its suction downforce, the Roadster could crush Max Verstappen's best Formula 1 lap time at the Austin COTA track.
Porsche's Unfortunate Timing: We have a good laugh at Porsche, who unfortunately published a "love letter to the driver" promoting their new hypercar on the exact same day Tesla made the entire automotive industry's traditional metrics obsolete.
SpaceX's "Colossus 3" Intelligence Factory: We discuss the map and drone views of a 444-acre SpaceX site in Brownsville, Texas. Based on the 400 to 500 megawatts of mobile turbine power generation being installed on-site, I conclude that SpaceX is building a massive new data and compute center.
The Mind-Boggling Compute Revenue Potential: We run the math on this new SpaceX "token factory." If fully populated with Nvidia racks, we estimate this single Texas site could generate anywhere from $132 billion to $183 billion in annual revenue, which would completely dwarf Tesla's current manufacturing revenue.
Our Austin Trip and The "Elon Ecosystem" Expansion: Phil and I recount our recent trip to the X Takeover event in Austin. We discuss the inescapable feeling that Austin is the new Silicon Valley, completely driven by the massive scale of construction at Giga Texas (including the Optimus factory) and SpaceX's Bastrop facilities.
First-Hand Autonomous Cybercab Experience: Phil shares his experience riding the autonomous Cybercab at night. We discuss its flawless, confident driving, the cool purple interior lighting, and why consumers will instantly choose it over competitors like Waymo due to its comfort and design.
The X Takeover Event, Nicki Minaj, and Elon Musk: We reflect on the diverse crowd at the X Takeover event, sharing our thoughts on a surprisingly insightful interview with Nicki Minaj about Optimus and freedom of speech, as well as an uplifting phone-in interview from a very happy Elon Musk.
Feeding Bison from the Cybertruck & Future Mergers: To wrap things up, we share a hilarious personal story of hand-feeding bison and camels directly out of my Cybertruck's window. Finally, we speculate on the upcoming back-to-back earnings calls, noting that a formal merger between SpaceX and Tesla feels completely inevitable at this point.
Fine accepted.
Post win celebration. Alabama goes down.
Memory of the lifetime for students (my daughter included).
Go Vols!
All the big things going on in Texas.
Hint: Tesla+SpaceX.
(Go Vols!)
