The International Space Station will provide a "World Class" environment for microgravity research. Ensuring this environment requires care in all aspects of its design. These aspects include consideration of the acceleration at near-orbit-tune-periods, such as gravity gradients and station drag, as well as controlling station structural dynamic modes, mechanical disturbances, and crew disturbances. Station designers must also ensure that the required acceleration environment is provided for long duration. The microgravity requirements placed on ISS will be reviewed, along with major considerations for achieving such an environment. Further, a description of the Space Station program strategy and implementation for meeting those requirements will be discussed. c2002 Published by Elsevier Science Ltd.
