Revision as of 11:08, 30 June 2008

This page is a collection of Financial effort estimations. It covers all planning, preperations, material, transport, administration, etc.

Systematics

There are several stages that can be calculated separately:

  • Transportation from Earth to Earth's orbit
  • Transportation from Earth's orbit to Mars' orbit
  • Transportation from Earth's orbit to Mars' surface
  • Transportation from Earth's orbit to Earth's moon
  • Transportation from Earth's moon to Mars' orbit
  • Transportation from Earth's moon to Mars' surface

Cost per kg from Earth to Low earth orbit (unmanned)

Small launch vehicles (less than 2300kg): USA, Athena 2 (2065kg to LEO): $11622 per kg Russia, Cosmos (1500kg to LEO): $8667 per kg USA, Pegasus XL (443kg to LEO): $30474 per kg Russia, Rockot (1850kg to LEO): $7297 per kg Russia, Shtil (430kg to LEO): $465 per kg Russia, START (632kg to LEO): $11687 per kg USA, Taurus (1380kg to LEO) $13768 per kg

Medium launch vehicles (less than 12000kg): Europe, Ariane 44L (10200kg to LEO): $11029 per kg USA, Atlas 2AS (8618kg to LEO): $11314 per kg USA, Delta 2 (5144kg to LEO): $10692 per kg Russia, Dnepr (4400kg to LEO): $3409 per kg China, Long March 2C (3200kg to LEO): $7031 per kg China, Long March 2E (9200kg to LEO): $5435 per kg Russia, Soyuz (7000kg to LEO): $5357 per kg

Heavy launch vehicles (more than 12000kg): Europe, Ariane 5G(18000kg to LEO): $9167 per kg China, Long March 3B(13600kg to LEO): $4412 per kg Russia, Proton(19760kg to LEO): $4302 per kg USA, Space Shuttle(28803kg to LEO): $10416 per kg Ukraine, Zenit 2(13740kg to LEO): $3093 per kg Multinational, Zenit 3SL(15876kg to LEO: $5354 per kg

Cost per person from Earth to Earth's orbit

Here the mass of the person with an average of 70 kg is only part of it. Additional mass is calculated for the life support systems. Rockets must be man-rated for them to be used in manned transportation to space.
