摘要
The requirements at low earth orbit (LEO) for several straight forward mission profiles to the moon and the Mars are studied. Space crewed missions are subjected to the provision that some of the payload must include life support expendable mass. Longer duration crewed Mars mission must be more massive than lunar excursions, but the cost per payload mass is uniformly favorable for a Mars flight. If the mass required in LEO to boost the mining package out to the moon is larger than the fuel mass, then the better choice is bringing all of the fuel mass directly to LEO.
