9. National Security Sector Implements QDR “transformation” and “space control” themes Space Commission objectives for RLV: short-notice call-up & lower cost Enables prompt global strike and ISR augmentation from space Enables “launch on demand” to augment, replenish, project, deploy and sustain U.S. space force structure Civil Sector--NASA Improves safety, reliability, availability, and lower cost compared to Shuttle Allows development paths for ISS crew rescue, other future missions U.S. Commercial Space Sector Enhances international competitiveness Stimulates U.S. space industrial base Enables revolution in space business—new markets, elastic demand Improves reliability, availability, flexibility—keys to launcher selection Aligns mission planning lead time with satellite manufacturing in <24 months All Sectors Enables new approaches to satellite design and constellation management On-orbit refueling could extend satellite operating life, improve maneuverability Enables technology insertion during operating life of a satellite block Reusable satellites could cost up to 2/3 less* to build, insure, and operate RLV Utility * 1998 NSSA Launch on Demand Study
