    I thought starlink was just an alibi company to buy rocket launches from SpaceX, and make SpaceX appear profitable on paper?

      Starlink is owned by spaceX so they’ve never purchased a rocket, they just launch

      And because of starlink SpaceX will be an insanely profitable company. Starlink is already bankrolling the very expensive starship development.
