This paper provides an overview of three major systems that will be available in the 1980's from the perspective of a spacecraft systems designer. While major systems themselves, the NAVSTAR Global Positioning System (GPS), the Tracking and Data Relay Satellite System (TDRSS) and the Manned Maneuvering Unit (MMU) will provide services that are destined to change the way spacecraft systems of the future will be designed. Each system is described in some detail with examples of their applications given.
