Excerpt:
"The nextbigfuture.com, by Brian Wang, reconsidered the concept in 2018 with a look at possible cost reductions by SpaceX. Wang noted the major impediment to implementing such a weapon is the cost of taking it to orbit. Another major problem is ensuring a precise guidance system."
"SpaceX, with its reusable Super Heavy Booster and Starship, along with Starlink, has the potential to solve both problems. The initial rod from god (Thor) weapon was projected at a mass of 8,000 kilograms, about 17,000 lbs. SpaceX and Starship are projected to reduce cost to orbit to $12 to $17 per pound."
"With SpaceX, the cost of orbiting rods from god are reduced from hundreds of millions of dollars per rod in the 1960’s to hundreds of thousands of dollars in a few years. This is based on a reduction of the cost of launching a pound into orbit from $5,000 twenty years ago, to $800 now, to about $10 in ten years with mass production of the reusable Super Heavy Booster and Starship."
"This compares favorably with weapon systems such as the patriot missile system, which costs about $4 million per missile. The two weapons systems have different functions. A Rod from God system is extremely hard to defend against. No fixed earth bound system, fortification, large surface ship, or concentration of troops would be immune, anywhere on the planet."
"With the Starlink system, the guidance problem is overcome. The fifth Spaceship test flight demonstrated how the Starship kept telemetry through a very hot re-entry. Communication with an orbiting system above you is much easier than sensing a target below you. A constellation of thousands of orbiting satellites (Starlink) tracking your progress and making corrections is very difficult to block."
