The program is responsible for the launch of approximately 80 science and applications payloads per year. These launches are for NASA programs and those of other U.S. government agencies, private industry, universities, foreign countries, and international organizations. NASA launches occur or have occurred from 34 launch sites located throughout the world. Nine of these receive substantial use. Payloads launched by this program contribute in a variety of ways to the control and betterment of the environment (e.g., solar studies). Environmental effects caused by the research vehicles are limited in extent, duration, and intensity and are considered insignificant. Source and nature of emissions and pollutants; impact on the environment; water quality; air quality and noise are discussed.
