Cost Scenarios
📊
Baseline
(baseline)
$99.3M/yr
Normal operational year with no major containment breaches; routine maintenance, staff wages, and scheduled replenishments only.
no major attacks
scheduled maintenance
routine consumables replacement
🚨
Minor Incident
$104.3M/yr
Localized damage or contamination event requiring moderate repairs, ablative module replacement, extra consumables and limited emergency charters.
small directed-energy strike
pathogen/nanobot introduction contained
partial ablative replacement
🚨
Major Breach
$174.3M/yr
Significant containment damage from large directed-energy weapon / multiple simultaneous introductions requiring major repairs, extended BSL-4 response and contingency drawdown.
sustained particle-beam strike
mini-nuclear device detonation (localized)
large-scale structural repairs
🚨
Catastrophic Breach
$399.4M/yr
Catastrophic damage (multiple miniaturized thermonuclear detonations or equivalently destructive attacks) requiring site reconstruction, mass replacement of systems and large contingency expenditure.
miniaturized thermonuclear detonation
prolonged high-energy bombardment causing systemic failure
massive structural loss

Confidence Notes
Analyst notes provide detailed line-item ranges and historical incident context, but many costs are order-of-magnitude estimates with wide ranges and high uncertainty driven by attack frequency and local construction/secrecy premiums; contingency assumptions further increase variance.
