A relay satellite following a halo trajectory will always maintain line-of-sight contact with the earth and the moon's far side. The Integrated Program Plan for lunar exploration in the 1980s and beyond calls for a fully reusable earth-moon transportation system. The principal elements of the system are a Translunar Shuttle, a Lunar-Orbit Space Station or Halo-Orbit Space Station, and a Lunar Space Tug. It is shown that a halo-orbit space station could offer important operational and performance advantages compared to a lunar-orbit station in a second-generation lunar program.
