31. Rockets Module 430 Replacement for Saturn V Saturn V sent men to the moon 1968-72 Launched Skylab Space Station 1973 250,000 lbs. To earth orbit Shuttle 65,000 pounds to earth orbit Shuttle 4.4 million lbs. 6 million lbs. thrust Saturn V 6.0 million lbs. 7.5 million lbs. thrust

32. Rockets Module 431 Initial Reusable Design - 1970 Expected to fly weekly – 52 flights/year High Development costs required a more conservative design

33. Rockets Module 432 The Compromise Solid Fuel Boosters Expendable tank Four flight vehicles No ‘escape system’.

34. Rockets Module 433 First Flight - 1981 Use of Solid Fuel limits safety factor at launch Can’t shut down solids once ignited

35. Rockets Module 434 Final Costs Flying only 8 Shuttles per year Each flight costs $500,000,000 (Half a billion dollars) High cost caused by few flights divided by extensive maintenance and launch expenses
