The costs presented are not correct. They should be more like: 2010: $10,000 per kg 2024: $2,000 per kg https://x.com/robert_zubrin/status/1862850686297522289?s=61&t=KvQcMnuSNFzBavNd53ktQA And that 2024 number is likely SpaceX internal cost for Starlink. Rideshare is $6,000 per kg: https://rideshare.spacex.com/search?orbitClassification=1&launchDate=2025-04-01&payloadMass=100 A dedicated Falcon 9 is just over $3,000per kg : https://www.spacex.com/media/Capabilities&Services.pdf

Original Tweet
Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1862542111012528257
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
