SpaceX might exceed 90% of all Earth payload to orbit later this year.
Once Starship is launching at high rate, probably >99%. Has to be or we can’t build a city on Mars or base on moon.
We file almost no patents, so nothing stopping competition from copying us.
Steve Jurvetson@FutureJurvetson· May 20, 2024The Q1 Launch Report just came out.
SpaceX has grown to 87% of the world's tonnage to orbit, a new high. The graph uses a magnifying projection to even see the other domestic launch providers. The five Chinese launchers combined lofted 13.6x less than SpaceX. Europe was zero.
