The orbiting laboratory which can take many forms and can be configured to house a crew of up to 12 men is discussed. The initial study of the 33-foot-diameter Space Station, launched by the Saturn INT-21 and supporting a complement of 12 crewmen, has been completed and documented. A Modular Space Station comprised of smaller, shuttle-launched modules is described. These modules could ultimately be configured to provide for a crew of the same size as envisioned for the 33-foot-diameter Space Station-but buildup would be gradual, beginning with a small initial crew and progressing toward greater capability by adding modules and crewmen on a flexible schedule.
