The injection of large quantities of rocket exhaust effluent into the upper atmosphere by the heavy lift launch vehicle (HLLV) of the solar power satellite system is discussed. The exhaust products considered are CO, CO2, H2O, H2, and NO. The effects on the composition of the atmosphere at different altitudes are estimated.
