It cost nearly $2 million per episode when it went off the air. I don't think that SyFy has attempted anything as ambitious since.
With Star Trek, you're going to pay at least $2 million in salary alone given the sheer number of cast mates and necessary star power in order to pull off Kirk, Spock and Bones.
If the show is successful, those salaries will double in no time.
