Previous papers of this conference have described rocket systems capable of launching sizable payloads into satellite orbits. Propulsion systems that might be suitable for the next steps are discussed in this paper. Some of the uses for propulsion systems once satellites have been established are as follows: (1) increasing lifetime of low-altitude satellite, (2) controlling and altering satellite orbits, (3) lunar and interplanetary exploration and (4) auxiliary electric power.
