Program plans are established for a storable propellant space tug used to perform high energy orbit transfers from the space transportation system (STS) orbiter. The mission model for the STS in the 1980's is analyzed. Performance and mission requirements are determined. Various flight operations modes are evaluated and selected. Subsystems are selected and synthesized into various tug configurations. Program options for these configurations are defined, analyzed, and selected. Selected program options are further defined and optimized, including program requirements, tug vehicle definition, mission accomplishment, ground and flight operations, programmatics and costs.
