  Nice write up  .
  
  So three LAS's for $98M or about $33M each?
  

  
  Half a ride to orbit on a F9.
  

  Cargo, but more for crew capsule ( about $183M ).
  
  Still would be cheaper with two launches instead of one SLS with greater flexibility.
  
  And with the possible Vulcan why still are we funding SLS for Lunar orbits?
  

  
  This isn't a Space Policy or SpaceX vs SLS thread.
  
  Stay on topic.
