Design features of the Space Shuttle orbiter vehicle, main engine, solid rocket booster, external tank, and inertial and spinning solid upper stages are presented. Space Shuttle facilities at Kennedy Space Center are discussed, together with the long duration exposure facility, a reusable, unmanned gravity-gradient stabilized, free-flying structure which can accomodate both active and passive experiments requiring long-term space exposure. Standard and optional Shuttle services are outlined, and preliminary flight assignments are described.
