Show Notes

“Ballpark, you’re looking at about $24 million for a satellite…$10 million to launch, ballpark. But then Moore’s Law is kicking in…the cost of going to space has come down so much, thanks to SpaceX. It’s down to less than $10,000/kg. When I was selling launch vehicles for McDonnell Douglas all those years ago it was $100,000/kg…with Starship, you’re looking at it coming down to $200/kg.” The cost to go to space is shrinking rapidly, Lonestar Data CEO Chris Stott shared on the latest Mining Pod, making it more cost effective for the company to land data storage centers on the moon.
