Review of studies carried out covering possible improvements of launcher (ELDO-A) with regard to inertial guidance, apogee system, etc, and feasibility of powerful launcher, which would give approximately 250 tons at lift-off; studies of ELDO-B program and critical aspects examined, namely determination of upper limit of mass to be carried by Blue Streak, accepting possible reinforcement of vehicle structure; general design of upper stages and examination of cryogenic problems, and preliminary project studies of liquid hydrogen/liquid oxygen six-ton thrust motor; technical constraints, and technical options already made.
