Implications of operational requirements on systems design, performance, and cost; considerations include safety and comfort, sonic boom, abort, flyback capability, mission parameters, etc; implementation of systems development -- wholesale expenditures or modest evolutionary steps; first new development seen is reusable passenger vehicle to replace Apollo command and service modules; next, improvements in economy and operations of launch vehicle; partially reusable systems appear most promising.
