Problems involved in transfer of personnel or supplies from ferry vehicle to space station; injection, approach, terminal and acquisition phases; penalties due to errors in velocity, altitude, orbital inclination, etc., and schemes for correcting flight paths so as to use minimum of fuel; wait periods of many days appear necessary if launch is to be made into correct orbital plane, but only one day or two if launch is made into incorrect plane with subsequent correction.
