The results and conclusions of the Cost Sharing Indexes (CSI) calculated during the course of the Spacelab follow-on mission support study, for the experiments that were being considered in the study, are presented. Assumptions on module/pallet configuration, number of energy kits, and mission duration had to be made for candidate experiments, calculating the effects on mass, volume, and energy consumption. Demonstration missions one and two are analyzed in detail showing the total national CSI for the payload listed in the included table, in terms of mass, energy and volume. German mission 4 (D4) is also analyzed.
