That sub will never accept that. SpaceX is apparently the greatest thing since sliced bread.

If you look at how low their internal costs are for starlink missions, its clear they definitely have the capability to reduce what they charge customers. They don’t need to though cause there really is no competition at the moment

Is this about launch costs or launch prices? Of course SpaceX won’t lower their prices for launches more than necessary, no matter how low their actual launch costs are.

Prices charged to the customer are generally higher than actual operating costs. Who knew!?
Thankfully we have Jedi Masters to educate us on how businesses work… 😏

SpaceX launch *price* is determined by market forces. They’ll sell a launch for the maximum price guaranteed to secure the contract.
SpaceX launch *cost* is a separate question.
Can we leave this FUD slop to Tesla?

Well, we know that from one side real launch costs for StarsX is somewhat noticeable lower then prices (we do not know what are those exactly). We also know that Elon is way overoptimistic and overpriced – that just way he runs. Both things is true.
It is really likely though that prices will fell quicker then 1/2 in 50 years now. And that where we are.
