Starship payload: 100,000 kg (100 tons). Looks like they talked about 150 tons and even 250 tons. My understanding is that they can be adding more engines to get more thrust. https://www.nextbigfuture.com/2022/02/spacex-reusable-rocket... -- looks like target price for Starship launch would be $3--$5m according to the author. Wouldn't the /kg price to SpaceX be: 3000000/100000 = $30/kg -- 5000000/100000 = $50/kg? If they recover everything and produce fuel at scale, wouldn't it drop the cost even more. What many people quote here are commercial rates, I think. SpaceX won't pay those prices. Can someone check my math |
