• Abstract:
  The Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) Office of the Associate Administrator for Commercial Space Transportation (AST) of the U.S. Department of Transportation (DOT) endeavors to foster a healthy commercial space launch capability in the United States. Since 1993, the DOT has requested that its industry advisory group, the Commercial Space Transportation Advisory Committee (COMSTAC), prepare and maintain a commercial spacecraft launch demand mission model. This report presents the 1997 update of the worldwide commercial geosynchronous transfer orbit (GTO) satellite mission model for the period 1997 through 2010. It is based on market forecasts obtained in early 1997. It is limited to payloads open to internationally competitive launch service procurements. Payloads captive to any launch system are excluded from the mission model. The FAA/AST develops low-earth-orbit (LEO) and medium-earth- orbit (MEO) market forecasts separately from this report.
