State of the art of laser propulsion and developments for the year 2000 are presented. Market simulation gives a guideline for identification and quantification of geostationary space power systems. System analysis concerning space flights and laser space stations in association with operating and economic factors is used for the evaluation of propulsion alternatives. Sensitivity analysis performed for the whole system shows the effects of construction modifications on the state of development of the laser.
