Just a cursory search shows launch costs are around $50M per launch
I think datacentres in space are predicated on Starship bringing launch costs down. Way down.

Spinlaunch is also promising drastically reduced cost per launch. The payload size for their first launcher is pretty small and they appear to be struggling to get the kinetic launcher online.

Spinlaunch is an outright scam. Their main product is taxing people for inadequate knowledge of basic physics. And engineering. Also… common sense.
