NASA issued a request to the U.S. aerospace industry for system studies and design concepts of liquid-fueled rocket boosters. The request for proposals resurrects the original concept for liquid-fueled rockets for the Space Shuttle that NASA had rejected. The request for studies was part of NASA's efforts to find an alternative to the hard-to-control solid-fuel boosters. Four NASA Centers-Marshall Space Flight Center, Huntsville, Alabama; Johnson Space Center, Houston, Texas; Kennedy Space Center, Cape Canaveral, Florida; and Langley Research Center, Hampton, Virginia-would be involved in this project.
