The price might need to be flat for each satellite (depending on the orbit) + a price per kg as cubesats are becoming more and more prevalent.
It won't cost the same to fetch something in low earth orbit than in geosynchronous orbit.
- Symmetry 8y agoNot much need to worry about GEO. Everything there is moving at the same speed in the same direction. It's all the stuff in upper LEO where different satellites are all orbiting at different inclinations where this is a problem. And only upper LEO, down where the ISS is at ~400km an object with a low ballistic coefficient like a screw won't stay in orbit very long.
