Starlink is the only profitable part of SpaceX
While the company is famous for rockets, its satellite internet business generates 60 percent of its revenue and keeps its other divisions afloat.
SpaceX is often viewed as a singular entity focused on Mars, but it functions as a collection of distinct businesses with vastly different financial profiles. Its satellite internet service, Starlink, serves as the economic engine of the entire operation. In 2025, Starlink accounted for approximately 60 percent of the company's total revenue and generated an operating profit of 4.4 billion dollars.
