  21. Merits and Limitations • Merits: • End Result: Clean energy for future generations • Creates many jobs: Eventually becomes its own industry • Brings participating nations closer • Wealthy individuals contribute to an Earth-friendly effort • Limitations: • ISS is in a high inclination orbit, SBSP based in GSO • Considerable amount of GEO space will be taken up • Maintenance of panels in GEO is not a trivial task ASTE 527 Earth Station: Global ISS Marketing – Future of Human Spaceflight

  22. Conclusion SBSP is a viable concept  ready to be tested in Space The Space Tourism industry is picking up A + B = ISSCOSH ASTE 527 Earth Station: Global ISS Marketing – Future of Human Spaceflight

  23. Future Studies • Trade Study: ISS vs. dedicated LEO equatorial assembly facility for SBSP modular buildup for GSO transfer • EP interaction with Van Allen Belt during spiral transfer • Electrodynamic tether for plane change • Lunar fly around for Plane Change ? • How to fix broken panels and do maintenance in GEO • Covering a substantial amount of solar disc  Help global warming (Dr. Angel – U of A) • Microwave Radiation or Laser? • Limited Space in GEO: Who gets what? • Same plane as ISS, what altitude?
