Volume I presents a summary of the entire study. The objective of each of the seven tasks is presented. The baseline vehicles and missions selected in Task 1 - Selection of Vehicles and Missions, are briefly described. The major activities performed under Task 2 - Vehicle Design Extensions and Subsystem Analysis, are reviewed. Special problem analyses performed under Task 3 - Extension of Subsystem Analyses are discussed. The approach and results summary are presented for Task 4 - Determination of Subsystem Requirements. The conclusions are reviewed for the principal task of the study, Task 5 - Reusability of Existing Hardware. Summary conclusions are presented regarding hardware availability. The subsystem approaches selected under Task 6 - Subsystem Tradeoff Evaluations, are discussed. A summary listing and discussion is presented of the selected advanced technology, engineering development, and general programs resulting from Task 7 - Advanced Technology Recommendations. (Author)
