I wouldn't think twice if you had in your profile something like "I work for SpaceX." Good to know, but not the source of your opinions. Your account is young enough that you can gain all that back without the boss in your name. This isn't my first account.

Plus, and I can't speak for everyone, but as a former would-be astronaut, this kind of stuff is tops to me. Info from insiders is always welcome. Consider starting a blog.

Thanks for taking my opinions into account.

Thanks again for the advice, I certainly value your point of view. This is the last time I'll post from this account, I'll go ahead and start a new one at some point.

I appreciate your sentiment in my starting a blog but I don't think I'd have the time to meaningfully contribute to it and I don't feel comfortable enough in my writing ability to do the kind of long form writing I feel such a topic deserves.

There are certainly many would-be astronauts here as well. Thanks for the kind words in support of the work we're doing.

I'd also advise you to remember that SpaceX isn't taking kindly to employees passing out internal information.
Sick. Hope I helped cuz I'm down for the cause
