Approaches to payload definition, design, and planning adopted in the Space Shuttle Program are described. The Space Shuttle offers many new modes of operation featuring reuse of spacecraft, on-orbit checkout and maintenance, sortie experiment missions, and opportunities to trade launch weight and volume for cost savings. In order to take advantage of these new approaches and to accommodate the varying missions, new payload elements have been identified, and new low-cost design approaches are being developed to utilize standardized components and modularized subassemblies that reduce spacecraft buildup and maintenance costs. A new payload planning technique makes use of the computer to provide large-scale planning, scheduling, and costing required for various program options.
