| APOLLO CAPABLE OF REACHING MARS AND VENUS
Excerpt... 1.6 CAPABILITIES DEVELOPED The development of large boosters, rendezvous techniques
and maneuverable Space vehicles, all required for the Lunar Expedition,
will also provide a capability for many new and advanced space achievements.
For example, the Space Launching System which will boost 130,000 pounds
to escape velocity will boost approximately 350,000 pounds into a 300 nm
orbit, or will launch a manned vehicle on a pass around either Mars or
Venus.
h. The Flans Office will be responsible for examining
other potential uses of equipment developed for the Lunex Program. For
example, - the salme equipment could be used for sending men around Mars
and Venus, or perhaps effecting a landing on Phobos. Considerable planning
also needs to be done regarding the exploratory phase of the Lunar Expedition.
