Maybe you are thinking of the costs of "re-using" the Space Shuttle. $250 Million to refurb it each time. But we do it for cost savings!

Fun fact, the cost of building a Shuttle orbiter from scratch was about $1.7 billion.

The cost of launching a Shuttle including the amortized development costs ended up being $1.5 billion per launch.
