Abstract:The Federal Aviation Administration's Associate Administrator for Commercial Space Transportation (AST) has prepared projections of the low Earth orbit (LEO) commercial payload and launch markets for the period between 1997 and 2006. This assessment includes market projections for all commercial systems in orbits other than geostationary Earth orbit (GEO), including systems planned for LEO, medium Earth orbits (MEO) and elliptical orbits (ELI).This report was developed based on AST research and discussions with industry, including satellite service providers, satellite manufacturers, launch service providers, and independent analysts. This assessment represents an update of prior AST studies of the LEO market conducted in March 1994, May 1995, and April 1996. These studies have facilitated a variety of Administration efforts, including Interagency Working Groups reviewing U.S. space transportation issues. The information provided reflects an AST assessment of overall trends in the LEO commercial satellite markets, with the ultimate purpose of projecting future space transportation needs to LEO.
