Not really adjectival, but forming a noun phrase. It's not productive because you don't call just anything you put on the table "table x".

I would still qualify "space" as a noun here, but that's if you accept these kinds of constructions as sequences of nouns rather than the zero-conversion of nouns into and adjectives.

Beltalowda!
It will forever crack me up that Bezos saved this show.

Once you verb a noun, you can use it however you like. Rock could turn to violence if you did it to billionaires, but you can rock out, too. Tools are a good source. Shovel billionaires, hammer billionaires, blowtorch billionaires.
Wordplay is fun!

Drummer and Ashford (tv)! Belter idols!!
The show did so many great changes! Tho the books are phenomenal too. I hope they'll adapt the final trilogy some day as well.

I’ll accept fly, but park and table definitely aren’t adjectives
Table tennis?

In Ukrainian those type of phrases would be converting the first noun into an adjective or into a prefix (either hyphenated or completely joined with the main noun)

In german, space billionaires would be a single, combined noun (Weltraummilliardäre) while space billionaires would be two separate words, a verb and a noun (Milliardäre verteilen) or, in the spirit of the meme, even more words (Milliardäre in den Weltraum aussetzen/dem Weltraum aussetzen).

Ageing all characters was digitally expensive. Plus CGi budget would go through the roof with all the alien shenanigans.

Saved because it was doing well and also killed when it was doing not as well as Amazon hoped.

In my head I read it translated as "Milliardäre spacen" ^^ Both of them.

So what is "table food"? If I ask what kind of salt you have, might you reply, "oh, it's table"?
To look at it another way, can you give me an example of a noun that is not an adjective?
I'll freely say that I disagree with Merriam Webster here...

Ok, you're right and the dictionary's wrong. Good job!
