John Mankins, the author of the book, "The Case for Space Solar Power,"
. . . estimates that if the launch price came down to about
. . . $400 per kilogram,
. . . then space-based solar power,
. . . would be cost-competitive with terrestrial solar energy.
If SpaceX, can get to a little over the
. . . 10 reuses planned for the Falcon 9 block 5,
. . . then they could bring the costs down to
. . . $743 per kilogram.
