Rocket Lab's definition of "sensible cost" is $10 million. That is indeed a bargain price for a dedicated HEO mission. Do we think that AMSAT could raise that amount of money in a sensible amount of time?

With the recent success of Capstone and the Rocket Lab Photon spacecraft, it may be possible to put a transponder on a Photon mission to GEO at a sensible cost.
