Benefits vs cost. Rocket launches typically develop and support bleeding edge technology. And are relatively infrequent compared to regular travel flights. The "huge" plastic cables are 7-8cm (~3 inches) diameter. So big, but not gas pipeline big. And because of THEIR existence many people are NOT taking those regular travel flights they otherwise might. Not saying we can't do better. But people closer to it and smarter than me would know. |
