The National Aeronautics and Space Administration has recently begun the design and development phase of the Space Station Program. International negotiations with the Europeans, Japanese and Canadians are progressing and they will soon join the United States in the development to complete plans for a cooperative, international space endeavor. The Space Station will prove a permanently manned facility in low earth orbit to support scientific research, technology development and commercial activities. In addition, free-flying platforms will be developed to carry a variety of user payloads in polar orbit, in co-orbit with the station and eventually into geosynchronous orbit. The Station and platforms represent an infrastructure of research facilities in space which could be utilized for measurements of naturally occurring radiation and secondary emissions over extended periods of time. High energy radiation experiments at the Station/platforms might vary in objective from scientific purpose of characterizing the radiation evironment for improved model accuracy. This paper describes the Space Station Program content, schedule and approach for inputting user requirements into the design process. Conference participants can then assess to what extent this future capability in space matches their future research initiatives.
