描述 | How could the newly authorized space shuttle help in the U.S. quest to build a large research station in Earth orbit? As a means of transporting goods, the shuttle could help supply the parts to the station. But how would the two entitles be physically linked?.Docking technologies had to constantly evolve as the designs of the early space stations changed. It was hoped the shuttle would make missions to the Russian Salyut and American Skylab stations, but these.were postponed until the Mir station became available, while plans for getting a new U.

By 1998, after nearly three decades of planning and operations, shuttle missions to Mir had resulted in:.• A proven system to link up the space shuttle to a space station.• Equipment and hands-on experience in handling tons of materials.• An infrastructure to support space station assembly and resupply.Each of these played a pivotal role in developing the skills and procedures cruci |
