What this node means
Launch cadence matters because reusable systems only change the cost floor when operations can absorb repeated flights.[1,2]
Why it matters
In the CosmosExplore model, launch cadence is kept as a separate node so cost, logistics, and risk assumptions stay inspectable.[1,2]
Guardrails
- This entry is a model context node, not a mission quote, route promise, or safety assessment.[3]
