Role of Launch Vehicles in Moon-Mars Exploration Program

Journal of Aerospace Engineering, 1998
Currently available launch vehicles cannot support logistically the human exploration of the Moon and Mars in the next century. They are too small and too expensive for this job. Past studies have shown that the costs of programs leading to the acquisition and operation of extraterrestrial bases are driven by the space transportation system, which ...
