 SPACE FOR THE 22ND CENTURY

 NASA officials predict that regular human habitation of other
 planets is likely by the year 2100. Row Rogacki, space
 transportation director at Marshall Space Flight Center, says
 the key will be "safe, reliable, affordable transportation." To
 that end, NASA engineers are trying to design higher-energy and
 lower-cost propulsion systems. Others are studying how faster-
 than-light travel might be possible.
