Description

On-orbit satellite serv1 c mg has been demonstrated on a variety of missions using the Space Shuttle. This capability is also a stated goa 1 of the Space Station and other unmanned vehicles. Serviceable spacecraft should be able to take advantage of all these servic~ng facilities. This paper will discuss one effort to document currently available or nearly operational servicing interfaces. Availability of this. type of compiled information will assist in a smooth transition from Shuttle-based satellite serv1c1ng to serv1c1ng at a wider range of locations and by different servicing vehicles.
