$2.8 million only?
The Government-Industrial complex can’t design a toilet for that sum. My guess is that cost only covers the cool graphics NASA will use to announce the project — for launch in 2045

Scientists and engineers have criticized the agency for incorporating spare parts and outdated technology in their construction plans. Why reinvent the wheel?

$2.8 million. Wow, Elon Musk has put fear into them. They sure sharpened their pencils. Do I need a sarcasm tag?

The Saturn V was a triumph of good engineering and was designed largely with slide rules rather than super computers. Too bad that kind of know how was lost at the end of the Apollo program.
