Abstract
Mission costs have been discussed several times in previous chapters. Sections 4.5 and 4.6 described the different kinds of space projects; Section 4.8 analyzed costs and how to evaluate them; Section 4.9.3 examined the development approach and model philosophy ; Section 5.3.1 looked at low cost designs. The following chapter will again consider the topic, providing a synthesized view, and examining cost reduction approaches proposed in the recent and not so recent past.
