      That’s literally what insurance is. They bet bad thing doesn’t happen. If it does, they pay you. If it doesn’t, they keep their money plus what you paid them.

      Because it’s profitable? I typed “space insurance” into google and it gave me webpages for companies who offer space insurance.

      Why would you think that it wouldn’t be a thing?

        I didn’t say it’s not a thing. I’m saying what would be the point of using it for fraud? You don’t make money from a failed launch.
