The space shuttle performance capabilities and proposed space shuttle missions are discussed. The performance requirements of the space shuttle are described in terms of three reference missions. Mission requirements are defined by spacecraft or net payload weight and by orbital specifications or space destination. The predicted performance of various space shuttle configurations are analyzed. (Author)
