The very presence of

physical, resource and

economic frontiers has

been fundamental to

human evolution

Civilization reached its

physical frontier over a

century ago and now

approaches its economic

The Earth sits in a

deep gravity-well

surrounded by a

thick atmosphere

Rockets have to

expend massive

energy to get to free

space

Launching solar

power or very large

satellites from Earth

is simply not feasible

Resulting in over

85% propellant

mass of a surface to

LEO launch vehicle
