From 1958 to 2011 (53 years) it amounts to $526.18 billion. This amount is less than what is spent on defense by America in a single year.
Per year, it costs $16.143 billion. This is roughly $132 per taxpayer per year.
The total cost of the Apollo 13 mission was approximately $355 million.
The Mariner program, run by NASA, consisted of a series of robotic space probes sent to explore Mars, Venus, and Mercury from the 1960s to the 1970s. The overall cost of the Mariner program was around $554 million in 1971, which is approximately $3.7 billion in today's dollars when adjusted for inflation.
NASA retired the Saturn V rocket in 1973 after the Apollo program ended. The high cost of operating and maintaining the Saturn V, along with advances in rocket technology, led NASA to shift to newer and more efficient rocket systems for its missions. Today, NASA uses the Space Launch System (SLS) for its deep space exploration missions.
The cost of building a space shuttle was around $1.7 billion each for NASA. However, the total cost of the program, including development, maintenance, and operational expenses, was much higher. Overall, the Space Shuttle program cost estimates range from $100 billion to $200 billion over its lifetime.
The total cost of the Apollo 11 mission, which included the Saturn V rocket, was approximately $25.4 billion in 1960s dollars, equivalent to over $150 billion today when adjusted for inflation. The Saturn V rocket itself accounted for a significant portion of that cost, with estimates suggesting it was around $1 billion. This investment was part of NASA's broader Apollo program aimed at landing humans on the Moon.
The total cost of the Apollo 13 mission was approximately $355 million.

NASA's proposed return to the Moon and on to Mars program is estimated at $150 billion total. This is roughly equivalent, in 2003 dollars, to the cost of the Apollo program in the 1960's

The cost to build NASA's Phoenix Mars Lander was approximately $420 million, which included the spacecraft development, launch, and operations.
NASA isn't creating an Android rather than NASA is trying to create a satellite powered by Android OS because it cuts down the cost burden.
Anything freeze dried.
NASA spent approximately $1.5 million to build and launch Friendship 7, which was the first American manned spacecraft to orbit the Earth. Launched on February 20, 1962, the mission was part of the Mercury program and carried astronaut John Glenn. The total cost includes the spacecraft development, launch vehicle, and mission support. Adjusted for inflation, this amount would be significantly higher today.
Overhead cost is part of total cost and not different from total cost as formula is as follows: Total cost = material cost + labor cost + overhead cost
Yes it is in cape canaveral in florida and in california also
u can buy them @ NASA when they start selling themthey cost a lot
