1 NASA Expendable Launch Services Current Use of EELV
Lynn F. H. Cline Deputy Associate Administrator for Space Operations National Aeronautics and Space Administration June 17, 2009

2 Overview NASA’s expendable launch vehicles are run by the Launch Services Program (LSP) consolidated at Kennedy Space Center in 1998 LSP provides acquisition, technical management, mission integration and launch management NASA utilizes a mixed fleet of vehicles (small, medium & intermediate) with varying levels of performance used to support a mix of mission sizes Mainly for Science Mission Directorate payloads, but other NASA Directorates and other government agencies also use NASA launch services Launches conducted from multiple ranges, including RTS, WFF, Kodiak Vehicles are selected from the NASA Launch Services Contract (NLS) Through competition based on mass, orbit, class of payload, and best value Current NLS contract expires in 2010, RFP released to extend the contract Most recent contract action purchased four intermediate class missions TDRS – K & L, RBSP and MMS Important issues Loss of Medium Class launch service provider, which has been 50% of NASA missions historically Compressed manifest Possibility that NASA incurs a portion of the intermediate class infrastructure costs post 2010
