Scientific paper
Theoretical fundamentals of the technology of tethers and possibilities of the practical employment of tethered space flight systems are discussed such as an orbital refueling facility for an orbital transfer vehicle, electrodynamic tether system for raising space stations, kinetic isolation transfer experiment and tethered satellite systems. The range of potential applications of tethers in space was thoroughly examined and systemized. On the basis of this classification a method of feasibility assessment was developed. An illustrative system analysis was performed on three selected concepts of tether supported payload transfer, which are tethered elevator, electrodynamic tether system for energy supply and boosting/deboosting tether system.
