The Space Launch Industry is currently experiencing a radical change in direction and complexion. After over 40 years of cold war spending by the Department of Defense, combined with NASAís aggressive pursuit of scientific knowledge, the United States has produced a capability envied and copied throughout the world. But the imperatives of the coming century are vastly different than those which have governed our operations in the past. With the virtual elimination of our cold war enemies combined with a political establishment preoccupied with budget cuts, a door has been opened allowing commercial interests to move to the forefront. Todayís Space Launch Industry is transforming into yet another extension of our growing global economy
