A comprehensive program for the development of satellite servicing tools and techniques is being currently carried out by the Office of Space Flight. The program is based on a satellite servicing infrastructure formulated by analyzing satellite servicing requirements; the program is Shuttle-based and compatible with the Orbital Maneuvering Vehicle and Space Station. The content of the satellite servicing program is reviewed with reference to the tools, techniques, and procedures being developed for refueling (or consumables resupply), repairing, and retrieving.
