The NASTAR Center’s Safety Approval benefits the entire Commercial Space Industry

The NASTAR Center’s Safety Approval is significant. It benefits the entire Commercial Space Industry by having a pre-approved program to that meets the Crew Qualification and Training Requirements rather than spending the time and cost involved in doing it themselves. It also paves the way for other organizations in obtaining launch license approvals quicker. The NASTAR Center’s Safety Approval Order (SA-10-001) states, “NASTAR may offer the STS-400 to a prospective launch operator to meet the applicable components of the Crew Qualification and Training Requirements of 14 CFR § 460.5.”
