Based on the Memorandum of Understanding which establishes the roles and responsibilities of NASA and ESA in the development and operation of the Spacelab, this paper covers briefly the unique management structure which has brought the program to its present state of development and the manner by which requirements were mutually developed. It then introduces the STS traffic model as it is now envisioned and discusses the trend of Spacelab utilization. The majority of the paper is devoted to description of the planning and execution of the operational phases of the Spacelab program, for which the United States has the sole responsibility. It discusses potential plans for mission planning, crew selection and training, payload integration, payload operations and preliminary data handling.
