Density uncertainty effect on cost of space station reboostIf the space station is designed for operation in a nominal atmosphere for ten years and the atmosphere is two-sigma higher than nominal during the entire ten year period, the impact would be an additional cost of $70.1 million, based on a resupply cost of $3200/lb. A cost analysis of the space station fuel consumption with reboost is presented.
