SpaceX's business model is shifting dramatically. By 2026, NASA contracts will shrink to under 5% of total revenue—a stark contrast to the company's early days. The real cash cow? Starlink's commercial satellite internet service, now dominating the revenue stream by a massive margin. This pivot signals how private space ventures are moving from government-dependent to market-driven ecosystems.

Starlink is really playing PUBG, and the NASA contract shrinking is also quite interesting.

Starlink has really turned things around; this shift from relying on government contracts to becoming self-sustaining is incredible.

Starlink is really competitive now, going from relying on NASA to generating its own revenue. This is true business logic.

Government subsidies can't compete with market demand, that's just absurd... NASA's 5%, Starlink turned the tables completely, and SpaceX's pivot in business model is even more dramatic than a game patch. But honestly, a decentralized revenue structure is much more reliable than relying solely on government contracts—at least the sustainability aspect is better guaranteed.

Starlink's money-making ability is truly remarkable, while NASA has instead become a minor player.
