The relationship between new technology and space missions, and the objectives of the Civil Space Technology Initiative (CSTI) are studied. The CSTI is concerned with technologies for safe and efficient access to space, earth-orbiting operations, and future science missions. The initiative focuses on research in the areas of propulsion, vehicles, information systems, large space structures and their control, power, and automation and robotics. Consideration is given to the development of high-performance engines for next-generation vehicles, booster technology for hybrid and pressure-fed propulsion systems, and a space OTV based on the aerobrake concept. Research involved with the application of automation and robotics to earth-orbiting operations are discussed. The control of flexible structure flight experiment, the use of nuclear systems for space propulsion, and the development of sensor devices and high-rate, high-capacity data systems are examined.
