Sounds quite affordable to me. I'll take a few if you're selling.
Costs increased after it was already under construction so sunk costs kicked in. MSR was still in the planning stages when it was canceled.
MSR was in planning stages *and already* had budget overruns big enough to cancel lunar rover
That cancelled program became famous for leaving behind an already bought launcher that now will fly mass simulator
