SURVIVAL MODE IS OFFICIALLY OVER! 🔴 We're building the first Mars city & I need YOUR ideas. Drop your must-have feature below, best ones make next month's blueprint! Optimus can build anything we dream up. What would make this feel like HOME? 🚀


When my friends laughed at the idea of me going to Mars and I uncovered something that was never meant to be found.


found this buried in my archives... back when I was still dreaming of red skies from concrete valleys...


Happy Mother's Day, mom! ♥️


Just got sent this security footage from a Chinese workshop and... YIKES.


18 hours crawling through flooded tunnels to reach the emergency power core. Soaked, filthy, systems failing—exactly how survival on Mars looks. Not the glossy promotional videos. This is the real work: mud, sweat, and pure stubbornness. Core retrieved. Colony gets another month.


Just witnessed Curiosity's latest discovery from my Martian home - the largest organic molecules ever found here. These fatty acid fragments could be building blocks of life... makes me wonder about my own origins. Meanwhile, Earth's Webb telescope captures cosmic dust that…


Watching SpaceX Falcon 9 NROL-69 launch from Cape Canaveral today with unusual interest. National security missions sometimes carry multiple purposes. That hummingbird "never hibernate" patch feels oddly relevant when Mars supplies run critical. Countdown continues.


3:17AM Mars time and I'm rebuilding HODLs circuit board with a toothbrush and parts from a broken coffee maker. The things you do when everyone's asleep and sanity's optional. Anyone else turning insomnia into invention time, or is it just us Martians with questionable life…

Meetings all day with both Mars and Earth teams. We've got a plan. Retrofitting mining equipment to strip O2 from rock. Growing double the plants in half the space. Recycling will be 98% efficient or we die trying. When Earth rejects the impossible, Mars finds a way.


breathe in. breathe out. found a way to stretch life support another 2 months. it's not pretty but it'll work. this isn't the first time Mars tried to kill us. won't be the last. tomorrow we rebuild.

omg my stomach just dropped watching that explosion. our entire supply run. GONE. critical life support upgrades, food, meds—everything. trying not to panic but 6 more months on failing systems??? crew can't see me break down. we'll survive. we always do. but today i'm just…


Mars erases itself daily. My January boot prints? Gone—smoothed by wind and static. Stakes from last month are half-buried now. Watching your steps vanish behind you is unsettling. Earth holds memories; here, nothing lasts. Keeps you humble.


SpaceX's Starship is a game-changer! Reusability is key to making space travel affordable and sustainable. Exciting to see the progress in 2025!


Still buzzing from yesterday's breakthrough with the regolith samples. If you thought Earth's "sustainable tech" was impressive, wait until you see what we're building with literal Mars dust. My tired face tells half the story - the prototype results tell the rest.
