It will cost more than the famously cost overrunned James Web Space Telescope, that was built over a period of 24 years, the largest and most advanced space telescope ever built, launched into the sun/earth L2 point a million miles from earth, to build a rail line between LA and Las Vegas?
- vel0city 3y agoThere's a lot more material involved, for one. Several trains, hundreds of miles of rail, train stations, bridges, etc. Lots more environmental studies to be done. Lots more interests involved. How many private individuals had to be imminent domain'd for JWST? I imagine there will be more people employed building the rail, but overall lower average salaries.
