• Must evolve launch base operations to allow LOD without impeding other launch methods

  • Expeditionary force structure
  • Information dominance

• Routine Spacelift for “responsive transportation” likely won’t prosper until we have the space equivalent of the 1929 Warsaw Convention, which:
  • Limits liability
  • Is accepted internationally
