Idon't have all the answers but Orbital does not have a good record with Pegusus. Besides who do you think will be paying for all the R and D on any new technology? E'Prime will be using off the shelf materials and solid fuel with few people needed on staff to launch. I'll take my chances that E'Prime will stay very competitive. soxan PS Please don't tout other stocks here, I believe that is against SI rules (sorry I'm really not the thread monitor, just want to keep E'Prime the focus of this thread)

Welcome Starman and All New Followers of EPEA, When considering the cost of launching, the cost of the launch itself plays only part of that total cost involved in the launch, and this is where EPEA has a true advantage over every other rocket ever made by this country or "any" other country in the world with their Peacekeeper Rocket. No rocket up to now has such a successful launch history as does the Peacekeeper,with now over 40+ straight successful launches. This is what Soxan was mainly referring about. The true importance of this is that the other "great" cost in the total price for launching is in insurance, of which that now plays a big factor in copanies not using launch operations such as China, for I "think" that 2 of their last 5 launches have ended in disaster, which when a Insurance Company is carrying the insurance for a 40-100+ million dollar satellite, they can not pay out that kind of money without putting the insurance premium in the sky, which stops a lot of countries in their tracks! With this in mind, you can see where the sucess rate of Peacekeeper could play a big factor in total launch cost. EPEA Believer*Richard
