EVA space construction - Experience and fundamental issues
Results are presented from EVA space construction studies performed in 1 g, simulated 0 g, and on-orbit. The studies include tests of astronaut participation on the Mobile Work Station concept and the Swing-Arm Beam Erector. Also, results from the Experimental Assembly of Structures in EVA and the Assembly Concept for Construction of Erectable Space Structure programs are summarized. EVA construction applications for the Space Station are discussed and construction scenarios are developed.
