SpaceX Statistics and Revenue Totals for 2024

Space Exploration Technologies Corp., better known as SpaceX, is an American aerospace manufacturer and space transportation company founded by Elon Musk in 2002. SpaceX has become one of the most significant and influential companies in the aerospace industry, revolutionizing space travel and exploration through a series of groundbreaking achievements.

SpaceX is known for its ambitious goal of reducing space transportation costs and enabling human colonization of other planets, notably Mars. The company has developed the Falcon series of rockets, including the Falcon 1, Falcon 9, and Falcon Heavy, which are designed to carry payloads into space for both government and commercial customers.

One of SpaceX’s most notable accomplishments is the development and successful operation of the Dragon spacecraft, which has been used for cargo resupply missions to the International Space Station (ISS) and, in partnership with NASA, for crewed missions as part of the Commercial Crew Program.

In addition to these achievements, SpaceX has made headlines with its ambitious Starship project, a fully reusable spacecraft designed for missions to Mars and other destinations in the solar system.
