1. • Half a trillion dollars

     • A recent estimate of the cost of the first human mission to Mars suggests that it could cost “half a trillion dollars.” This estimate is consistent with most past estimates. A similar cost number can easily be derived using mass-cost estimating factors based on the International Space Station (ISS) and other experience.

   This means that the cost of a long stay human Mars mission is estimated at roughly $300 to $600 billion. The higher cost allows an earlier landing in 2033 but the more restricted budget will postpone it to past 2050.

   How much will a human mission to Mars cost?

   • So, let’s use an estimate of what a human mission to Mars is expected to cost – the number ranges from around $100 billion to $500 billion per mission. I imagine it is going to be closer to the $500 billion or more given that the ISS alone cost more around $150 billion.

   How much would it cost to go to Mars?

   • Using the same cost factors and life cycle cost estimating approach, the cost of the life support for the Mars mission could be two billion dollars or more. The cost to go to Mars is expected to be two or three times that of either Apollo, space shuttle, or ISS and could be as much as all three together.

   How much does Mars life support cost?

   • Mars life support operations cost The Mars operations costs will be relatively smaller since the total mission duration is roughly 3 years, not 15 years as for ISS. The operations cost estimate is 0.0401 $B/$B-year, based on development cost and mission length.

   How much would it cost to build a Mars City?

   • Musk estimated in 2019 that it would take around one million tons of cargo to build a self-sustaining city on Mars. Assuming it costs $100,000 per ton to send cargo to Mars with the upcoming Starship, that would put a Mars city’s price at around $100 billion. At the high end, Musk estimates it could cost around $10 trillion.
