The 45th Space Wing, which manages the Eastern Range that includes Kennedy Space Center and Cape Canaveral Air Force Station, has set a goal of securing 48 launches a year.

Rockets by SpaceX, United Launch Alliance, Blue Origin and Boeing, in the form of NASA’s future Space Launch System, and others like submarine-launched Trident missiles would make the goal a reality by 2020. [Source: Florida Today]
