Might also be billions if we consider how far behind they are and what they still need to achieve with what's left.
I simply don't have the exact numbers so I went with the lower but certainly reached number.

You forgot how the upper stage caught on fire, exploded in the ocean, and still hasn't taken a single gram of cargo to orbit. Then once it does all that a few times without exploding it has zero customers to make the decades of work and billions wasted worthwhile.

The barrier to interstellar travel is chemical rockets themselves, aka The Tyranny of the Rocket Equation. You can't make interstellar happen via chemical rockets. You need space infrastructure to lift insane amounts of mass into orbit. Space X admits it would take thousands of StarShip launches to get a bare bones colony of like 100 people on Mars. That's never gonna happen.

The first orbital rocket to land its booster was in 2015
Spacex is still the only company to do that. The closest is blue origin's new glenn which has not flown yet. Spacex is making another generational leap with starship before 2015 technology is reproduced by competitors. Also if you're not developing a reusable rocket and just flying old ones, you're decades behind schedule.
There is no budget and no public financials. Elon has his own money. But next time I find an orphaned baby bird and I need someone to throw up in its mouth I know just the guy.

NASA, like all government agencies, is not-for-profit. Since tax payers fund the research and man hours they often get free access to the products. For the USGS this comes in the form of near limitless digital topographic maps of the entire USA available for high resolution download online free of charge. For NASA this came in the form of things like public research via Hubble as well as countless research projects that still benefit humanity today making their monetary contribution incalculable. One good example is NASA pioneered growing in austere environments with LED lights. Today from cannabis to indoor tomatoes LED lights are the workhorse of modern horticulture and the growing food factory industry.

I live in deep rural America, we have 5G towers. I don't give two shits about African broadband. If Elon wants to give Africans broadband he should move the fuck back to Africa and install some normal fucking broad band. Or hey only launch your sky pollution cuck machines over Africa, from African soil.
I'm saying me, personally, StarLink means nothing. On top of that i'm their prime customer, no internet wires where I live, never gonna be. I'll never ever ever buy his or other Sat internet. Too expensive and too slow for the price. I get the same shit off 4G now for a third the price and 10% the power usage.
The ONLY THING you can ever claim Space X did OF ANY VALUE TO ANYONE is Starlink, which is just him spamming bull shit satellites into low orbit. We have other Sat internet companies who've been doing this for decades. He's done nothing of value and the other Sat Internet companies are just launching more of their own to compete.
PS, you realize the MAIN CUSTOMER for starlink is the US Military to have a private network to run their army of killer drones off of right? Literally that's what Ukraine is doing with them now, they strap Starlink rigs to flying bombs and send them away. Since Elon built his own private internet it's secure for military operations. The DoD has public contracts for this.

But here goes, ok?
See "Reddit Spacing" is a style of spacing every new SENTENCE as if it were a PARAGRAPH, as is demonstrated in this post.
Paragraphs on the other hand are normal breaks in a written selection meant to help a reader known when subjects have shifted as well as many other things; paragraphs can be differentiated from "Reddit Spacing" with one simple test.
Simply count the sentences per block of text!
One sentence per block of text, Reddit Spacing.
Multiple sentences per block of text, a paragraph!
Not to mention this post >>16427935 is literally a single block of text with three complete sentences in it, not even close to Reddit spacing. The rest are just the same two meme YT links that match the picture. You fucking asshole retard whore.

The 2nd SLS tower (that doesn't catch a rocket) will cost 3 billion dollars. That's about half the cost of Starship development so far, for a normal tower the likes of which we were building over a century ago.
The SLS engines each cost more to refurbish than the entire Starship stack costs to build from scratch. Those are engines that already flew on the shuttle, and there are four per rocket.
Development is mostly funded by SpaceX, which is different from normal companies who just pay back shareholders. Maybe because they do it quietly you don't notice the waste, but you should really refocus your priorities.
>years behind schedule and way over budget
Schedules are arbitrary. Frankly we're 40 years behind schedule and it's sad that a company has to do it. It is also not over budget.

You realize useful humans are on airplanes, boats, in warzones, or otherwise remote areas, and there's no 5g towers there. You lose all these in disaster zones. If undeveloped countries are "humanity" then you can include that too. All types of satellites and their goals benefit. All space exploration technology. But yeah, a retard sitting in complete comfort with low responsibility and no importance doesn't benefit much. You'll see a steady stream of news about this helping people you didn't for the rest of your life and you'll always have something to shitpost about starship or not.

He's probably a bit unhinged but it's lucrative for him to exploit his fellow Musk haters. He makes a good living from YouTube revenue. The only reason why I think he might actually be a bit deranged rather than just straight up grifting is that he went through on his promise to move out of the UK if Brexit was passed. That came at a significant cost to his career and a big economic cost too though some of that might be offset by the lower cost of living in the Czech Republic.

You are repeating talking points from a clown. It's not really your fault.
Spacex has been in orbit with humans since 2020. This is how I know you're not a regular to spaceflight news and just watch thunderfoot videos. I wouldn't remember the facts either. The moon is easy, and he will gloat how easy it was because it was done in 1969. Mars has unsolved challenges and isn't a sure thing, but starship is a pretty safe bet for a fantastic LEO and moon vehicle. Spacex is generations ahead of everyone else and they lift more mass into space than all other launch providers on earth combined. A whole ago they passed over 50% of all satellites and own the majority of them. Spacex is space. Look into the issues, not thunderfoot videos. He has a brand to keep. His channel would be boring without a villain.
