Sub-orbital programs can push science to new limits by deploying the very latest in instrument concepts and technologies. Many space missions have sprung from sub-orbital programs, scientifically, technologically, and personally. I will illustrate the sub-orbital potential with examples from cosmology, interferometry, high-energy astrophysics, and others foreseen in NASA roadmaps.
