• Sommario/riassunto: This volume contains a number of papers presented at the Space Commercialization Symposium. The papers cover a broad spectrum of topics including those relating to current and future launch vehicle capability, space infrastructure elements, space law, and space policies. They provide insight into both the current and future supply and demand for space-related products and services and opportunities and potential problems to be encountered by both the developed and developing nations. The papers in this volume expand on five broad topics including launch vehicles, advanced propulsion systems, operations, space power, and commercial space and the developing countries. The first four topics include papers describing space-related capabilities, and the last topic includes papers describing commercial opportunities and developing countries' experiences and needs.
