- The founders say no spacecraft engineer has reviewed the simple model, and current station costs exceed recovered-parts value.
Field notes
The planner is the only described capability available now: users can enter their own fleet numbers, and four displayed answers update; the page does not name those outputs or validate the model. The proposed sequence depends on satellite-owner consent, a servicing tug, and a low-orbit station. The founders say their first estimates put station costs above recovered-parts value, and they have not found a buyer for recovered materials.
