STARSHIP THROUGHPUT LEDGER

The question isn't whether we go. It's whether the math closes. Wall Street is pricing SpaceX IPO momentum, but the colony survives on cargo mass per launch. This ledger translates Starship's 150-tonne payload into human lifetimes.

📥 INPUT PARAMETERS
Default: 150t dry cargo (Starship spec)
Baseline: 1,200 souls (Phase I)
Food, air scrubbers, med-supplies: 4.2kg/day
Current gap: 54 weeks (14×27-day transit)

// OPERATIONAL NOTE: Each missed launch extends the deficit window by 27 days (Earth-Mars transit). The ledger assumes 100% payload utilization. Real-world losses (thermal degradation, docking failures) require 15% buffer.
