THE SPACE TRANSPORTATION INDUSTRYAt $5.9B in revenues in 20141, the global space transportation industry is arelatively small part of the overall $323B global space industry. But without it,space-based services would be impossible. It is an enabling capability, one thatmakes it possible to send national security and commercial satellites into orbit,probes into the solar system, and humans on exploration missions.THE SPACE INDUSTRYFor context, the global space industry is estimated to have been $323B in 2014.About $203B (63%) of this was revenue generated by companies providingservices like television; mobile, fixed, and broadband communications; remotesensing; satellite systems and ground equipment manufacturing and sales; and, ofcourse, launch services. The remaining $120B (37%) constitutes government spacebudgets and global navigation satellite system (GNSS) chipsets and services.The U.S. space industry was approximately $125B in 2014. This includes $87Bin revenues generated by satellite services, satellite manufacturing, satelliteground equipment, and launch services as well as $38B spent on spaceprograms by the U.S. government. U.S. launch service providers accountedfor about $2.4B in total revenues or 41% of global launch services. FAA AST licensedlaunches accounted for $617M of the $2.4B.
How did they get $270 for FH?Sent from my HTC One_M8 using Tapatalk
How did they get $270 for FH?
FH listed as estimated $270m?!
I'm more amused by how they messed up the columns for the Electron GTO mass and price. I wonder where they pasted the $164M-$400M from.-- clarification
I finally got a chance to start looking through the 2018 Compendium and my first reaction is I sure hope the FAA isn't paying much for this crap.
