Manned deep-space missions require such large vehicle masses in Earth orbit that orbital support operations such as assembly, maintenance, fueling, checkout, and launch of deep-space ships are necessary; mass and cost burden rates associated with orbital preparation of space vehicles for departure on specific missions are derived and major system parameters and their sensitivities defined; representative values for burden rates are given in dimensionless graphs with orbital departure mass and number of ships leaving as parameters; it is shown that they can be of same orders of magnitude as minimum mass and cost required to place space vehicle departure mass in orbit.
