A concept for future small Shuttle launched reusable platforms, considered as a means of cost reduction for LEO missions is described. The first platform of this type of spacecraft is SPAS-01 to be launched in 1982. Follow on concepts are presented for astronomy missions (ASTRO-PLATFORM) and space processing activities (SP-PLATFORM) which have quite different requirements. Further, a 'standard platform' is discussed which could be equipped with payload modules of different nature. The operational and management aspects of this new approach are considered.
