Using the market size at $2700/kg to LEO to size the market is ridiculous when they are working on trying to get it to $100/kg to LEO.
If the only launch vehicle was the SLS, the market size would be $0. That's not meaningful!
- orwin 3y agoWhy would you compare it to Sls, that makes no sense. SLS is meant to replace Saturn 5 launchers, no? It will have like max 20 launches. The market size is limited, because, well, why would you send stuff up there? GPS, telco, science (iss). I guess if you make it cheap enough, high class hostels? (doubt it, and you have to have human rated spacecraft). Until space mining is a thing, and in that case you should rather invest in mining companies, the market size is limited.
