Summary:
"The capability of the United States for launching satellites into polar orbits is limited and may well be saturated within a short time period. The development of a polar orbit launching base of unlimited capability consequently seems worthy of consideration. Such a base could relieve operational pressures on existing installations and also provide the basis for an unlimited space exploration program. Such a base could be established in the Territory of Hawaii. The intent of this document is to delineate the planning for the development of a Hawaiian launching base. The various items of work comprising siting, design, and construction are described. A project concept delineating facilities requirements in presented. A preliminary estimate of costs of these facilities is then developed" -- Page five.
