Description: | NASA has been planning a return to deep space beyond orbit and has been balancing this with maintaining commitments to the International Space Station. To do the latter, it has sought new developments and players in the industry looking to make human access to orbit cheaper, and maybe even extend into deep space, possibly aligning with NASAs loftier goals, in a partnership that is currently ongoing, but not yet fully successful. With this project, information will be gathered on the evolution of two projects of a similar outcome, but with a different development. One has progressed under older methods used to procure spacecraft, while the other will come from one of NASAs new partners. From this research, a comparison and analysis of these two models will be made, and finally, a recommendation as to which may be best to reach deep space. |
