The Aerospace & Defense Forum Dallas/Ft. Worth Chapter December 10, 2015 HISTORY HISTORY OF THE SPACE OF THE SPACE MARKET MARKET Early space market government driven • Missions were limited to government priorities Traditional Aerospace • Frequency was driven by single customer (government) High cost infrastructure with few customers, low launch • Cost a non issue rate, high cost per flight Applications Technology was determined by government (Missions) • Type of missions, launch and frequency • Disposable launch Platform • Vertical launch and limited recovery (Launch vehicles) High cost mission programs Infrastructure • Reusability impossible (Regulatory, Launch pads, etc.) Market Limiting due to cost, safety, capabilities and availability CURRENT/NEAR TERM MARKET FOR SPACE Current generation technology is focused on several areas • Using private enterprises to make established, government and scientific missions more affordable • Commercial efforts to advance technology for space platforms and missions Multiple market segments are seeing opportunities in space • Communications • Science • Manufacturing Cost, capabilities and • Security frequency remain limiting • Mining factors to opening the • Tourism market to other potentially viable missions. • Space maintenance • Medical • Point to point capabilities 2
