The NASA Langley Research Center has been developing a lifting-body configuration called the HL-20 for potential application as a personnel launch system orbiter that will provide the crew changeout at the Space Station Freedom. The objectives have been to provide an alternate manned access to space with a more cost-effective, efficient, reliable, and safer system for the routine transportation of people to LEO. The detailed study of this concept includes the subsystem design, flight software sizing, and mass properties that are discussed in this paper. The goals were to develop a subsystem complement to maximize operational efficiency with minimum development costs while using current technology. Subsystem selection and trade studies showed that current technology components will provide the required performance and operational effectiveness. Many of the selected components have Shuttle flight histories or considerable development heritage from other programs that will help minimize development costs.
