July 19, 1999

In a recent report released by The Federal Aviation Administration's
Associate Administrator for Commercial Space Transportation
(FAA/AST) and the Commercial Space Transportation Advisory
Committee (COMSTAC) titled "1999 Commercial Space Transportation
Forecasts," projections of global demand for commercial space launch
services for the period 1999 to 2010 look to be favorable.

Together, COMSTAC and the FAA predict an average of 51 commercial
space launch worldwide per year through 2010, a 40 percent increase
from 1998. Of the 51 launches, medium-to-heavy launch vehicles placing
satellites in geosynchronous orbit (GSO) will comprise the bulk of launches
averaging 25 per year worldwide. Medium-to-heavy launch vehicles to
low earth orbit (LEO) and non-geosynchronous orbits (NGSO) and small
launch vehicles to LEO will account for an average of 15 and 11 launcher
per year worldwide.

On the payload side, it is forecasted that 1,369 GSO and LEO payloads
will be deployed between 1999 and 2010. The bulk of the forecasted
payload figure is dominated by the large number of LEO payloads
expected to be launched to build out several LEO communications
constellations. GSO spacecraft payload numbers are predicted to peak at
39 in 2001 and decline to 29 in 2003 and 2004.

report by visiting the FAA's web site, ast.faa.gov.
