Abstract

The last people to travel beyond Earth's orbit were the crew of Apollo 17 who journeyed to the Moon 50 years ago. The success of the Apollo program gave rise to aspirations of a permanent presence on the Moon and to send people to Mars. But at a cost of 3% of the United States' GDP, Apollo was unsustainable and any long-term presence in deep space unviable.
