Estimates say the cost will be $3b and the value is $7b. So I imagine the cost will be $5.5B and revenue to be $6b. Costs always run over, and revenue is always lower.
Cool to bad there won’t be an agency to study it.
Literally the post right below this one in my feed was about the government canceling 3.5 billion in carbon capture contracts. So we could fund the Mars sample return and still have net „savings“, right?
Its going to find tax cuts for the wealthy? Oh okay, never mind.
