Figure 37 Detail Part Assembly Summary Figure 38 Traffic and Fleet Size Summary options are: Plan 1 - 594 $/kg, Plan 2 - 1554 $/kg, Plan 3 - 571 $/kg. The time value of capital, as described later, would favor the Plan 1 with the short build cycle. The high altitude assembly appears out of the running on cost grounds. However, the low altitude options must make allowance for SEPS solar cell degradation and must protect the SSPS cells while traversing the Van Allen belts over relatively long time periods.
