simonbp (simonbp@social.linux.pizza)'s status on Thursday, 20-Apr-2023 23:54:00 JST simonbp @thomasfuchs Starship is almost totally funded by NASA these days, through the Artemis lunar landing program. They might launch a few Starlinks on the side, but Artemis is their priority, at least until the landing happens.
That was the same Falcon 9 before it, NASA fully funded development and was the exclusive customer for the first 6 launches.
