This study defines a superconducting electromagnetic lunar launcher and its necessary support systems. This launcher is to deliver lunar-derived liquid oxygen to lunar orbit. An Electromagnetic Launcher and Systems Sizing Model developed by the Large Scale Programs Institute scales the launcher and supporting systems as a function of liquid oxygen payload and time between launches. The impact an electromagnetic lunar launcher would have to the present NASA Office of Exploration Lunar Evolution Case Study is examined for three lunar oxygen producing scenarios.
