Space payload management concepts previously outlined (Bader and Farlow, 1971) are reviewed and are extended to include the aircraft research management scheme. The application of this scheme to the Space Shuttle, both as an orbiting laboratory and as a launch vehicle for unmanned spacecraft is discussed. It is shown that low-cost short-lead-time procedures, based on experience with the use of ordinary laboratory equipment aboard aircraft, are for the most part directly transferable to the Space Shuttle.
