Stern/Apr 2010 Research & Education Missions: A Bonanza at 100 km Commercial Spaceflight Federation Suborbital Applications Researchers Group

Stern/Apr 2010 X-Prize Private Suborbital Flight Competition: 2004

Stern/Apr 2010 X-Prize Private Suborbital Flight Competition: 2004

Stern/Apr 2010

SpaceShipOne’s Successor: SpaceShipTwo: 2008

Stern/Apr 2010 SpaceShipTwo Development: 2009 SpaceShipTwo Began Test Flights This Year and Plans Commercial Ops in Seat Prices for Early Commercial Ops are $200K.

Stern/Apr 2010 And Virgin Has A Great Deal of Competition  Blue Origin  Armadillo Aerospace  XCOR  Masten Space Systems

Stern/Apr 2010 Research & Education Missions (REM)

Stern/Apr 2010 Unique Features of Next-Gen Suborbital Research  Frequent Access to Space at Low Cost –10x the microgravity time of zero-G aircraft, & a 100x cleaner microgravity environment. –Direct access to the “ignorosphere.” –Hundreds to thousands of seats flown each year.

Stern/Apr 2010 Fewer Constraints on, and Gentler Rides for Payloads –Fly off the shelf laboratory equipment. –Fly researchers with their payloads. –Fly larger payloads than can be flown inside Shuttle or ISS. –Simple, fast safety/integration processes, like zero-G aircraft instead of Shuttle/ISS. Unique Features of Next-Gen Suborbital Research

Stern/Apr 2010  Flexible Operations –Worldwide launch basing. –Ability to launch at specific times coincident with phenomenology, in synch with classes, in sync with circadian rhythms, etc. –Rapid access to samples, test subjects, etc. post-flight Unique Features of Next-Gen Suborbital Research

Stern/Apr 2010 These Attributes Make the REM Market Rich With Applications  In Atmospheric Science  In Life Sciences  In Earth Science & Oceanography  In Space Physics  In Astronomy & Solar Physics  In Instrument Test & Demonstration  In Microgravity R&D  And for Education, for Training, and for Public Outreach
