The answer

$67,000,000

Roughly $67M.

SpaceX lists a Falcon 9 launch at about $67 million. Before reusable boosters, comparable launches routinely ran past $150 million. Cost per kilogram to orbit has fallen by more than an order of magnitude since the 1980s, almost entirely because the first stage now flies again.
