It has as its objective the establishment of a permanently manned facility in low earth orbit. This book summarizes the main findings and recommendations of a workshop that examined the space station program with a view toward identifying critical engineering issues related to the design and operation of the station.Space stationsDesign and constructionCongressesEngineering designCongressesLarge space structures (Astronautics)CongressesSpace stationsDesign and constructionEngineering designLarge space structures (Astronautics)629.44/2National Research Council (U.S.).Workshop Committee on Space Station Engineering Design Issues.MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910953847703321Space station engineering design issues2645246UNINA
