On Thursday, Musk disclosed on platform X that SpaceX is anticipated to generate approximately $1 billion in revenue from NASA this year, constituting roughly 7% of its total revenue of $15 billion. When a user commented, predicting that SpaceX's revenue would soon eclipse NASA's entire budget, Musk responded optimistically, hinting that this milestone could be achieved as early as next year. The White House's fiscal year 2026 budget proposal, released in May, outlines a budget of $18.8 billion for NASA, marking a decrease of nearly 25% from the $24.9 billion it received in fiscal year 2025.
