[#6] One-time cost for a commercial lunar lander/interceptor capture mission (conservative planning for dedicated capture/containment mission).

[#29] Large one-time reserve recommended for worst-case accelerated launches, emergency construction, or large-scale lunar-Earth containment.

[#9, #11, #12, #26] Initial R&D program and research lab buildout: reality-dampening R&D program seed, lab equipment, database/digitization, and initial software development/integration.

[#8] One-time construction of a hardened Earth-side containment facility (subterranean reinforced chamber, EMP shielding, environmental controls). Estimate chosen mid-range.

[#5] One-time build/launch for a small constellation (2–4 small/medium imaging satellites) option; alternative is recurring commercial imagery.

[#2, #3, #4, #10, #17, #18, #19, #20, #21, #22, #23, #24] Rapid-response vehicles and ground equipment, optional helicopter purchase/outfitting, drones, containment-chamber outfitting, cybersecurity hardware, mid-size telescope purchase, communications procurement, backup power hardware, decon upgrades, PPE procurement, specialized housing for specimen, and capture prototypes. Sum of line items mapped.

[#13] One-time contingency fund for large-sightings payoffs, settlements, or legal contingencies.

[#27] One-time seed fund for casualty/liability reserve to be replenished as incidents occur.

[#15] One-time secure pharmaceutical/amnestic supply chain setup and secure storage.

[#5, #7, #9, #12, #18, #26, #28] Recurring monitoring and R&D ops: commercial imagery contracts or satellite ops, lunar-asset operations, ongoing reality-dampening R&D maintenance (5–15%/yr), researcher contracts, telescope ops, data/software operations, and long-term monitoring program.

[#1, #11] Salaries and loaded costs for on-call MTF field teams and a lean research team (includes security/MTF, research scientists, and small administrative staff).

[#30] Institutional overhead, audits, compliance, and contingency margin (~15% of recurring program costs).

[#13, #14, #16] Recurring public cover-up/media operations, PR, legal retainers, diplomatic liaison, and emergency coordination/liaison programs with local authorities.

[#3, #25] Air support operations (charter/maintenance/flight hours) and recurring logistics, travel, and per-diem for field deployments.

[#8, #20] Ongoing maintenance for containment facility and associated energy/fuel and backup-power operating costs.

[#17] Recurring operations and staff costs for secure servers, encrypted communications, and data protection to prevent leaks.

[#4, #15, #24] Consumables: UAV batteries/rotors, amnestic medical supply consumption, and capture consumables/tranquilizer supplies.

[#21] Recurring costs for high-containment waste disposal, incineration or contracted disposal services.

[#27] Annual replenishment/reserve contributions for casualty and liability fund as incidents occur.

[#19] Recurring satellite bandwidth and communications fees for field↔HQ↔lunar telemetry links.

[#22] Recurring memetic safety training, PPE replacement programs, and psychological screening refreshers.

[#23] Recurring veterinary care, sustenance, and husbandry for captured specimen(s).
