Compared to nasa launching the space shuttle at 450 million each time, that's a crazy bargin and still gives space x money to grow and advance.

2022- SpaceX offers even more competitive pricing for rides aboard its medium-lift Falcon 9 rocket. The company typically charges around $62 million per launch, or around $1, 200 per pound of payload to reach low-Earth orbit. Last month, however, SpaceX announced that it will raise the price of its products and services due to inflation, with a Falcon 9 launch now costing $67 million, a roughly 8 percent increase.

Still, the price represents a steep decline compared to more traditional options. NASA’s space shuttles, which were retired in 2011, cost an average of $1.6 billion per flight, or nearly $30, 000 per pound of payload (in 2021 dollars) to reach low-Earth orbit, according to an analysis by the Center for Strategic and International Studies.

Could you increase the volume of the music?.... I could just about hear the narration.

Just curious - what's the appreciable cost/operational benefits between landing vertically and getting caught by the launchpad tower (the chopsticks landing)? Or is it a flex?

It only costs this much because no one can compete with SpaceX

I am completely blown away by this. When corporations are earning Trillions of dollars, this is 70 Million. And you get the recycle. Even if you don't. OMG that's so cheap. AND AI??!! Cowboy Bebop! Here we go!
