Experience with the Shuttle and free-flying satellites as technology test beds has shown the feasibility and desirability of using space assets as facilities for technology development. Thus, with the arrival of the Space Station Freedom era, technologists will be ready for an accessible engineering facility in space, particularly to support technology development for manned space exploration. As the 21st century is approached, virtually every flight to the Space Station Freedom will carry one or more research, technology and engineering experiments. The experiments planned will utilize both the pressurized volume and the external attachment facilities. A unique class of experiments will use the Space Station itself as an experimental test bed. Based upon recent examination of possible Space Station assembly sequences, technology payloads may utilize upwards of 20 percent of available resources.
