   Ok, that's not quite accurate, but seriously, this is just nuts.   
      
   And as the article points out, even if SLS launches more than once, they'll   
   have to modify it again for the revised upper stage.   
   Compare this to the Mobile Launchers build for Apollo, which where modified   
   for the Saturn IB. Granted it was "just" a milkstool but even that was more   
   complex to design and build than I would have guessed.   
      
   There's really no excuse for this sort of costs.   
      
   SLS needs to die.
