SPACE FLORIDA’S PROJECTED INVESTMENTS … … (over the next 3 years)
Positioning Florida for Next-Gen Systems • Attract New Emerging Space Systems • Advance Commercial Heavy Lift • Convert Shuttle Landing Facility to Commercial • Support Commercial Crew • Expand Statewide Space Capacity
Why Important? … American Space Competitiveness American commercial launch market share has drastically declined over the past 30 years. Page 13
Reclaiming Commercial Launch Market • U.S. share of Commercial Launch Market fell from 100% in 1981 to 0% in 2012. • Domestic launch companies can reclaim nearly 30% of the market by 2015. • Space Florida will ensure adequate spaceport infrastructure exists to meet commercial needs
Establish Non-Federal Launch Site Capability Shiloh • Former citrus community located at Volusia-Brevard county line, part of KSC • Previously considered for commercial launch site • Most remote area of Center • No identified requirement Alternate land area owned by State Offers greater separation from I-95
Commercial Vertical Launch Initiative - Shiloh • Targeting commercial launch market to complement the existing federal market & launch infrastructure • Commercial launch operators addressing market demand for non-federal launch environment • Effort aligned to FAA Office of Space Transportation (FAA-AST) Site Operators license process • Shiloh Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) RFP released late May 2013 • FAA Office of Space Transportation as Lead Agency with NASA KSC as Cooperating Agency for Shiloh EIS
COMMERCIALIZE the SHUTTLE LANDING FACILITY • NASA - No Future Mission Need … … Long Remaining Useful Life • NASA pursuing Divestiture Strategy for SLF (transfer of ownership, demolition or abandonment) • Space Florida – Management for Commercial Operation • Strong Industry Demand • - Self-sustaining Operations
