Scientific paper

The advent of the Space Shuttle will make possible the launch of widely varied payloads into space. The Shuttle itself will have the capability of positioning satellites into LEO, either operating from its payload bay or in an independent orbit. In addition, a Spinning Upper Stage and an Interim Upper Stage (IUS) can be launched from the Shuttle in orbit and propel payloads to GEO and to the planets. Attention is given to the design and operating characteristics of the Shuttle cockpit, including a description of the instrument panel and landing systems (air data system, TACAN, and Microwave Scan Beam Landing System (MSBLS)).
