Description

The Space Telescope is a major orbiting observatory which will be deployed and serviced by the Space Shuttle in 1985. The servicing includes unscheduled maintenance, periodic on-orbit maintenance, and return to earth for ground refurbishment and redeployment.

The Space Shuttle interfaces with the Space Telescope may be divided into four categories: structural, electrical, safety, and extravehicular activity (EVA). This paper will describe the end result of the design activities in each of these interface areas and discuss the design drivers associated with them.
