The Mini-STEP idea was conceived from a desire by NASA to reduce the cost of the Satellite Test of the Equivalency Principle (STEP) experiment below that of the already downsized Quick STEP concept. The goal was for the total cost, including launch vehicle and reserves to be in the $50 m range. The Mini-STEP approach was to start with the Quick STEP concept and reduce every component in cost.
