The Shuttle Pallet Satellite (SPAS) can provide an operational platform of greater flexibility for launching of multiple payloads. Missions can be performed in the attached and detached modes during a single Shuttle flight, with the freeflyer version for periods of up to two years. The candidate payloads for SPAS are the 80 cm X-ray Wolter Telescope (ROSAT Mission) and the cryogenically cooled German Infrared Telescope (GIRL Mission).
