Model which optimizes long-term, continuous-operation missions performed by earth-orbiting space station; model is based on use of arbitrary cost-effectiveness criterion; space station operating time availability is shown as function of cost for arbitrary mission lengths and payloads; resupply vehicles are used to support separately-launched, "permanent" space station; critical reliability and maintainability problems; model was developed on basis of results obtained during detailed in-depth studies of actual systems; it was programmed for and run on high-speed digital computer.
