    The document contains information about the average payload masses of various satellite models launched by different rocket systems. It also includes two tables comparing rocket systems by their GTO payload capacity and cost per launch, as well as the total cost for six launches. The SpaceX Falcon 9 can carry an average of 4850kg to GTO for $61.2 million per launch, while the SpaceX Falcon Heavy has the highest GTO payload capacity of 21200kg but for a cost of $85 million per launch. The Airbus Ariane 5 has a high GTO payload of 9600kg but costs $220 million per launch, making it the most expensive option.
