Description
A mission as complex as the Space Exploration Initiative (SEI) cannot succeed without adhering to sound principles in the planning, development, and execution of logistics support for the exploration crews and their mission equipment. While much attention will focus upon the development of reliable, robust, heavy lift launch vehicles, and scientific, technological breakthroughs for SEI, of equal concern is the supportability and sustainability of systems designed for mission operations and crew life support on the lunar and Martian surfaces.
