Questions about pricing
At first image, which is about six months after signature. If the launch slips, your start date moves with it.
Three years. A five-year term lowers the fee by about 12 percent.
From year two you can buy the satellite out at a price fixed in the contract. Owning one outright from the start is possible and typically costs about $9.5M to $16M per satellite plus $12M of ground and operations set-up, as the estimator shows.
Standing orders and extra tasking within the capacity you have contracted cost nothing extra. Priority tasking beyond it is quoted per request.
