What is Frequent, low-cost launches?

Frequent, low-cost launches mean sending things into space often and not spending a lot of money each time.

Imagine you have a toy rocket that you launch from your backyard every day after school. At first, it costs you $10 to make the rocket work, maybe you buy new batteries or stickers for it. But as you keep launching it more and more, you learn tricks to make it cheaper. Soon, you only need $2 each time because you reuse parts of the rocket and don’t need all the fancy stuff anymore.

Frequent means doing something often, like launching your rocket every day.

Low-cost means not spending a lot of money on each launch, like using just $2 instead of $10.

This is what companies like SpaceX do. They send rockets into space many times, and because they reuse the parts that come back, it costs less each time. It’s like having a toy rocket that you can use again and again without buying new ones every day.
