Paper argues that cost of space flight can be brought down sharply if full use is made of hardware being planned and reusable boosters being built; review of growth potential of Saturn shows that it could be used for boosters to succeed Atlas-Centaur, for simple and complex space stations to be used for test flights in preparation for manned planetary flight, and for planetary missions themselves; possibility of recovery by inflatable drag cones and advantages of nuclear boosters, is examined.
