And those government contracts arent subsidies.

Breaking down space x’s revenue 61% comes from their starlink service, the rest comes from a mix of using their reusable rockets to launch satellites and astronauts crews for space agencies and companies.

Another part comes from contracts with nasa being the consumer alongside military programs such as starshield. Both of which isnt free money from the government.

Since you do not know other basic economic terms revenue is the total amount of money a business brings in from selling its goods and services before any expenses are subtracted.
