PERCEPTION VS. REALITY - REMOVING BARRIERS TO COMMERCIAL LAUNCH FROM THE EASTERN RANGE
(March 3, 2009)
|
|
Cape Canaveral is the nostalgic first choice among commercial launch service providers. With its 158,000 acres of dedicated, protected, coastal real-estate in Florida, the geographic location means customers can launch heavier payloads to orbit. For more than fifty (50) years the Cape holds the safest manned and unmanned launch record in the world and is synonymous with the excitement, exploration and security of spaceflight. It is important to recognize that the Cape launch locations are part of the Eastern Range of the USAF. As a range and spaceport, there are mission priorities that can affect launch activity. Priority is placed on DoD missions that are important for government needs in support of national priorities.
