Present information available on meteoroid environment of space and on hypervelocity impact and penetration is evaluated; guide line approach to development of design charts is established in terms of which attempt is made to assess effects on meteoroid shielding requirements of uncertainties in state-of-art information; if changing information requires extension of tables, necessary calculations can be made by means of equations given.
