This paper discusses the potential need for space maintenance tools on long-duration, manned space missions currently expected during the 1972-1980 time period. A review of technical needs for tools is provided that suggests space maintenance capabilities can both maintain and extend system reliability, thereby enabling longer-duration mission times and greater assurance of crew safety.Current analysis techniques used to determine high-priority maintenance requirements, tooling and checkout needs, and maintenance constraints upon system designs are also reviewed. The correlation between space maintenance at various levels of application, and a space maintenance tooling capability is described. Other correlations that serve to illustrate useful applications of space tools are reviewed, and are inclusive of the following: Methods and facilities useful for demonstration testing of space maintenance tools are both illustrated and described. Various facilities capable of simulating zero-g space environment are available as test beds for conduct of space-simulated maintenance operations. This paper emphasizes maximum use of ground-based, space simulation capabilities to gain experience with basic tool configurations, and man's adaptability to space maintenance tasks.
