Scientific paper
A transportation system from earth revolving orbits to the lunar surface, to be used in the manned lunar surface sites phase, in which three astronauts stay at the site during day time only, is reviewed. The review examines the system functional balance between composing elements and selection of the overall manned lunar transportation system and on subsystems such as manned transportation module, lunar landing vehicle, and lunar transportation vehicle. The following topics are covered: (1) representative example of earth-moon transportation profiles and required speed increments; (2) overall lunar transportation system structures; (3) functional balance between subsystems; (4) outline characteristics of manned transportation module; and (5) conceptual drawings and outline characteristics of lunar landing and take-off, and lunar transport vehicles.
