There are three primary objectives of this study. The first is to identify time-phased accommodation capabilities necessary to support the civil space exploration initiatives. These initiatives include the Lunar and Mars missions in the Human Exploration Initiative (HEI). Primary accommodation requirements include integration and assembly of vehicle components and systems on-orbit, and protection of these vehicles from the space environment, particularly debris. Secondly, this study will develop accommodation concepts, define impacts (hooks and scars) to Space Station Freedom (SSF), identify staging/servicing requirements, and identify required technology advances. Finally, the majority of the study effort has been devoted to conducting a trade study to evaluate alternative transfer vehicle accommodation concepts. These concepts have ranged from basing all transfer vehicle accommodations for both Lunar and Mars transfer vehicles at SSF, to basing all accommodation capabilities off SSF. Two steps are shown in the NASA reference SSF evolution process. The first configuration is to provide lunar transfer vehicle accommodation support, and the second is to provide accommodation support for the Mars transfer vehicle. (MTV)
