Bill of Materials (BOM) and Cost Estimate for Starfall

by

Starfall is explicitly designed for mass production (like Starlink satellites), so unit costs drop sharply with volume. It is tiny compared to a Starship upper stage (~2.1 t dry mass vs. ~85–100 t), with far simpler systems (no main propulsion, parachute landing, jettisonable shield). Here is a realistic BOM (Bill of Materials) breakdown and cost …
