Opening the space frontier to human settlement and enterprise requires that a basic infrastructure be developed that will provide the necessary services to support these human activities. One of the first steps in establishing this basic infrastructure is to build large space bases in low Earth orbit that will serve as the terminus for the reusable launch vehicles or planetary shuttles now under development. This paper discusses a proposed approach for building such large space bases using the current Space Shuttle's technology base.
