$33 billion in 1975 dollars equals $95 billion in 2003 dollars.

This is for a "big can" colony, however, I believe the estimates for
the stanford torus colonies would be much less.


I've seen reports that the cost of ISS has appraoched
$90 Billion. I've seen cost estimates all over the map
for ISS. Does anyone have a definititive number amd a source
they can point me to.

If the ISS did indeed cost $90 billion, then a rethink for
even a Stanford Torus is in order.
