MONOGRAM
The Rockwell InternationalOrbiteris an integral componentof a
highlysophisticatedSpaceShuttle Systemthat providesAstronauts
with a muchgreaterdegreeof flexibiltyin theircontinuing exploration
of space.TheSpace Shuttleconsistsofan aircraft-like orbiter,a mas-
sive, cylindricalexternalfuel tank, andtwo solid propellantbooster
rockets. Theentire systemsignificantlyreducesthe cost of placing
satellites into Earthorbit, because the orbiter and the booster rockets
are reusable.Theorbiteris fitted with an expansive cargobayand a
mechanical arm that enables shuttle crewmento retrieve,service, and
relaunchorbital satellites. This uniquecapabilityenablessatellites
to be repairedif any defects occur. It is also possibleto retrieve
satellites
from Earth orbit and return them to earthbound facilities for
technological updating before placing them in orbit once again.
TheSpace Shuttleis ableto embark on sortiemissionstransporting
scientistsandtechniciansinto low Earthorbitfor sevendaysor more.
Therethey are able to performexperiments and observations using
speciallydesignedmodules carriedin the payload bay.This capabili-
ty enables commercial organizations t o conducttests inenvironmental
andgravitational c onditionsthat cannotbe duplicated on Earth.
The impressive orbiteris similar in size to a modernjetliner like
the McDonnell-Douglas DC-9.Thespacecraftis morethan 121 feet
long and has a wingspanin excess of 78 feet. Most of the orbiter

tection surfacesdesignedto maintainpreotermined airframeskin
temperatures. Of particularinterestis the high-temperature r eusable
surface insulation used on the lower surfaces of the orbiter. This
materialis designedto withstandheat in excess of two thousand
degreesFahrenheit.
Attitude control during the orbital and atmosphericentry phase
is accomplishedby an orbital maneuvering systemlocated in the
noseandin two podspositioned aft of the payload bay.Uponentering

The orbiter lands on a tricycle landing gear similarto an airplane.
Thecrew cabin in the noseis dividedintotwo sectionsconsisting
of a flight deck with seatingfor four crewmenanda mid-deck area
that servesas the crew quartersandcontainsadditional s eatingfor
three Astronauts.In an emergency situation,the mid-deck area can
be reconfigured priorto launchto provideseatingfor threeadditional
Astronauts. T his is the first timein the historyof manned spaceflight
that a rescuecapability hasbecome available tothespacecommunity.
As the latest step in the adventureof spaceflight,the Space
ShuttleSystemrepresentsthe vehiclethat will enableAstronauts to
utilize the heavens for the benefit of mankind.
