Another factor that contributes to the expense associated with satellites is the cost of putting one into orbit. It is estimated that a single satellite launch can range in cost from a low of about $50 million to a high of about $400 million.Launching a space shuttle mission can easily cost $500 million dollars, although one mission is capable of carrying multiple satellites and send them into orbit.ransponders alone hundreds of thousands of dollars a year to maintain, while bandwidth cost per MHz is priced at a minimum of about $3,500 a month. Running a satellite at a 36MHz bandwidth will cost over $1.5 million a year.
Cost: NASA's figures for the first 20 missions (1981-85) showed an average cost of $257 million. STS-27 military mission cost to NASA in Dec-1988 was reported at $375 million. Constuction cost is about $1.3-2 billion per orbiter (each capable of &gt100 missions).Performance: OV-103/104/105 can deliver 24,990 kg into 204 km LEO; they are called 55K Orbiters because of their 55,100-pound capacities (the design goal was 65K).onstuction cost is about $1.3-2 billion per orbiter (each capable of &gt100 missions).
