A verb is a doing word, so it is saying to space the billionaires, as in to throw them out in airlock into space. It's got nothing to do with whether or not the billionaires are active in the space industry or not.
I got that, I was referring to the first panel (adjective noun).
Yes but in figure 1 it's a noun modifying another noun. Like police car siren. Police and car aren't adjectives in that example.
The term you might be looking for is adjunct noun, where a noun modified another noun by acting as an adjective, as-in chicken soup, or cat food.
