total cost of a rocket (with research) in 0.15.X?

I haven't done the math yet, but it looks like getting to the endgame in 0.15.X requires more time, more resources, and a more complicated factory.

Has anyone done a page yet on the total cost of a rocket, maybe with a comparison to 0.14?

u can multiply space science by 1000 to get the price of a rocket.

Here's a python scratchpad:

Counting only the costs of researching the actual rocket (rocketry, rocket speed 1-5, and rocket silo), I get that rocket research costs 388K resources, and the rocket + satellite costs 229K resources. If you include other research (in particular the cost of the tier 3 modules), the cost of the research goes up.

My numbers match pichutarius's for the research packs, which makes me a bit more confident I didn't make a mistake somewhere.
