Tesla CEO Elon Musk: Although I have a deep crush on NASA, they will account for less than 5% of our revenue next year. There is no doubt that the commercial version of “Starlink” is currently the biggest contributor to our revenue. Some people claim that SpaceX is “subsidized” by NASA, which is completely false. The reason the Space Exploration Technology team was able to win the NASA contract was because we provided the best products at the lowest price—both the best product and the lowest cost. SpaceX is currently the only agency that meets NASA safety standards when it comes to transporting astronauts.
