Synopsis

The United States is at a critical moment for ensuring continued national access to space. A new U.S. space transportation policy that takes into account the persistent challenges and forges a consensus between public and private stakeholders could set the nation on a course to maintain its global leadership in space, secure our vital economic and security interests, and lay the foundation for a return to the Moon and the expansion of human presence to Mars and beyond.
