NASA and the Air Force Research Lab are working together to develop a technology roadmap for the commercial reusable launch vehicle industry, NASA announced last week. The effort is to officially kick off next week in Dayton, Ohio, home to AFRL, during the Commercial and Government Responsive Access to Space Technology Exchange 2009.
