@elonmusk Can you clarify lowest throttle level for M1D & max decel. for S1 during a 3 engine landing burn? Lots of misinformation.
Elon Musk@lukealization Max is just 3X Merlin thrust and min is ~40% of 1 Merlin. Two outer engines shut off before the center does.

@elonmusk Appreciate the clarification. Congrats on the landing! -
@lukealization@elonmusk that's 3 replies in what less than a month. At this pace you will be Elons right hand man by the end of the year. - Show more

@elonmusk Why not fly a used booster for your Dragon launch abort test with no 2nd stage & only 5 engines running. You'd could recover both! -
-
@elonmusk is that 40% reduction (60%) or down to 40%? -
@HolsMichael@elonmusk It sounds like 40% of 1 Merlin to me.
-
-
@elonmusk@lukealization Is this 40% throttle a new capability for the Merlin? -
@elonmusk@lukealization basic math -
@elonmusk@lukealization never been so lost and yet so fascinated reading those tweets -
@elonmusk about the color of the landed s1. Black is rp1 tank, white is lox (colder), the top is again black/grey bc. lox there was spent? -
@elonmusk@lukealization any more damage than before from higher srtesses or not much -
@elonmusk@lukealization that is some deeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep throttle response. -
@elonmusk@lukealization Elon, as you said, last night you learned a lot...more space is needed for used boosters! :) -
@elonmusk@lukealization apparently those merlin's do shut down quickly if you can drop to one like that
