The global population is growing exponentially. Collective standard of living is growing at an even faster rate. Will Earth be able to support its human population 20, 50, 100 years from now? Space beckons with nearly limitless resources that that can sustain our civilization indefinitely. The United Launch Alliance (ULA) is developing the transportation that will enable access to these resources and return finished products to support our life on Earth. ULA’s next-gen rockets strapped to its upper stage vehicle called Vulcan ACES will power long duration deep space missions never before possible. This capability will enable the access to space resources, construction of permanent space habitats, and development of space based industry—all for the benefit of humankind.
